We were so sorry to hear of Don's passing and send his family love and hugs to get you through this sad time. Don was always on my life and thoughts, from living close to far apart. He was always keen to reminisce of his days as an engineer at sea and the ships he sailed on. So now it's time to pull up anchor and say farewell. Fondest memories. Jessie and Peter
