So sorry to hear of Don's passing. We both loved playing bowls with Don. So friendly and supportive, a great personality with a wonderful sense of humour. He was a very good player as well, so we were always pleased to be on his team! We will miss his presence at the club. Sympathy to Joan and the family. Keith & Carol Tattersall
