Dear, We just wanted to let you know how sorry we were to hear about the death of your dear brother Donald. We know how much you loved each other, it was obvious whenever you were together. My husband do know and see Donald for many year pass at DCM's front door as he sit there as his guard. Few years ago me came to DCM and myself learned about him but I don't know Donald as well as Deaf people told about him. And our thought and prayer are with you and your family at this time. May God bless and comfort you and your family at this time. Pastor Barbara and Emil Easter - Posted by: Emil and Barbara Easter (visitor) on: May 12, 2015

Remembering Donald as the unofficial Ambassador (Sheriff too!) of the Deaf Center. Most mornings Donald would be sitting downstairs in the lobby greeting us early risers coming in to work with a smile and letting us in the building. Throughout the day, Donald could be seen cruising the lobby and café checking things out and making sure everything was as it should be. Always a smile for everyone passing through the lobby. Warmer days he could be seen outside in the common area visiting. Hugs to his baby sister. He will be missed but I am positive, his presence will live on.
