Don was up there with the connected.  I dated his girlfriendonce, when  Cheralyn wanted me to go to a dance or go on a date with some one else.  I learned Barb and Don were very smart.Barb even had a plan to get through college in three years, soDon was no "penny firecracker" to have such an intelligent friend.It was such a shock for his death, like with my dad, too young, and too soon!  I feel for his family, and mentor Barbara, and so smany others that saw Don's hidden talent produce results.again and again.
