| We only knew Don for 2 or 3 years but will say that it was always a joy to see, and speak with him. We had called him a couple months ago to check in and we had been wondering the past few days how he was doing… dang it… truly a loss to the club and the whole community to lose him.

Carla and I were very saddened to hear the news about Don. Due to (regrettably) not attending meets for the first 30 or so years or my club membership, I actually did not meet Don in person until the St. Louis meet in 2013. He and his late sister Judith were wonderful folks. Don was sharp as a tack, and both witty and wise. We worked together for awhile when I was involved with the Club’s Electronic Communication Committee. Don was a fan of both 300s and Imperials, and owned both marques, as did I. I last dined with Don at the 2021 Auburn Hills meet, where I discovered that he was a pipe organ music fan. We both enjoyed the “concert” provided by the young fella at the Stahl’s Museum. Carl In the 25 years or so I knew Don from attending meets, I don't think I ever saw him in a bad mood. He'd come up and start talking and always started the conversation as if he had some latest and greatest information he could hardly contain any longer. It was always great to know he was going to attend, especially when he and Jerry Kocur were in attendance together. I'm sure the two of them are together again telling stories. Don always impressed me as a gentle soft spoken individual who was always engaging, friendly and respectful. I remember fondly having breakfast with him, one time, while he spun stories about the history of this fine Club. Tony Rinaldi

He reminisced about that meet for the next 51 years, the last meet being the Hershey meet this past spring. Don drove his L, which he bought new, to Irwin and other meets. He kept it in immaculate, like-new condition and never ever subjected it to a carwash, but only gently handwashing it. Over the years he enjoyed his “300 family” as he called the club. He was first a club treasurer and then a club president. He was our unofficial club historian and produced the video of our first 25 years. Lastly he was our web guy and formulated what it looks like today. His passing leaves a huge profound loss in our 300 family. such a kind good guy , always thee .
reminded me of Jerry Kocur too , another kind good guy
Both missed —
A lot
