I was so sorry to read about Don’s passing. My husband, Patrick and I tried to take Don out to dinner several times after Judy’s death. He had 24 hour care after that. Judy and I were in a golf group together for many years. My condolences to the family.

My deeply sympathy to Michael and all the Family. We will take good care of his beloved dog Cody.

A candle has been lit!

I heard this news today and was very sad. Don was my inspiration at Standard & Poor's where he took me under his wing while guiding and taught me about investing when I was in my 20s. I am so glad I was able to speak with him just over a year ago but sad that I never made the trip out to visit him. He was a brilliant human being and he will never be forgotten.
