    Virginia and James,

    Don lived next door to me and my family in Bogalusa. I have very fond memories of our childhood.
    He was a dear friend and even though our paths led us in different directions we did exchange e-mails.
    He spoke of you two and how much he loved you both and the Grandchildren.
    I hope the memories that you share will give you peace.
    God Bless,
    CHERYL Brown Houston
