Thank you to all our family and friends who joined us in celebrating Don's life.

 
Marie's tribute:
 
Don and I shared a love that lasted a lifetime...Together.

We built our home from the ground up with our own hands...Together.

We raced the Windmill class sailboat that Don built and in a storm, capsized....Together.

We paddled in synchronized rhythm in the kayak Don built...Together.

He tilled the earth, I planted the garden, and we gratefully gathered the harvest...Together.

We watched our baby boys grow into fine men...Together.

We embraced the wonderful joy of being grandparents...Together.

We celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary with a helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon...Together.  (No small feat, as Don didn't like heights!)

When it came to motorcycling, he was on his own.
(Although, I was told I'd look good wearing leather!)

We walked along the ocean's surf and got excited about rainbows and sunsets...Together.

We trusted in God's promises and daily prayed...Together.

Now I wait until that day when we'll forever be...Together.
