    Aunt Shirley and cousins, You know Uncle Donny will be missed. Pittsburgh will never be the same for me - he was always there to take me around and fill me in on changes. He thought there was no place better than Mt. Oliver- but I am sure he is in a better place now! Sorry I can not be with you this week but my thoughts and prayers are with you! One last question- will Bobby now play Santa?????

    Shirley and Family, You all have my sincere and heartfelt condolences on the loss of Don. I'm sure you know how fortunate you all were to have him in your life, and also to know that he will make a wonderful addition to all the other angels in heaven, because he was a wonderful angel here on earth. He also made a wonderful Santa, the other Santa want a bees, have some big shoes to fill. He will be missed by so many. Steve, I went to grade school with you-I know how much you will miss your dad.
