    Dear Precious Family, I know Don will be greatly missed. We can rejoice that now he is with His Heavenly Father, and all his loved ones long gone. I truly thought Don was a magnificent man, I thank God he allowed me to meet you, Janet, and most of Don's family at one time or other. I love you, your sister in Christ, Martica

    Janet and family, I am guessing my brother, Jimmy and many more saints can use a great chef in Heaven! I know he will be greatly missed here. See you one day, God willing.
