    So sorry to hear of the loss of Don. He will be truly missed. I worked with Don for many years at Nova and was inspired by his work ethics and knowledge. He was a true mentor. We also had many fun times playing Squash and golf together over the years. Will miss seeing him at Mooretown, Again, my deepest sympathy. Rest in peace my friend.
