Dear Donna and Dawn, your dad was such a neat guy. Between you all, many facets of Don come together for me to reveal someone with commitment, a strong love of family, a fun and interesting friend to have. I can’t trim bushes and trees for too long without picturing him in that beautiful yard. I am honored by your family’s friendship and today I am especially focusing on Don who could take you with him when he told a story or make you laugh out loud. God bless you and your own families, Love, Jan

Dear Dawn, Donna and family. It is certainly the end of an era. The Cochran‘s and the Greeks were so close and now we are left with fond memories. Your dad was always so kind. I am so very sorry for your loss.
