Although I didn't know Don well, I do know he was at the Senior Nutrition Site when I'd get noon meals when "home" in Platteville...he was always a gentleman and so friendly...He will be missed and I sent my deepest sympathy. Respectfully, Carolyn Schuldt PHS 1960

So sorry to hear of Don's passing. When I read in his obituary, "He was a loving grandfather and mentor for his beloved grandchildren" I agree completely. I coached several of his grandchildren in the Platteville Little League program. He was very involved and supportive of his grandchildren and their development as young men. He was the kind of grandpa that we all want. --Kent Scheuerell
