I was so sorry to hear of the passing of Don. My thoughts and prayers go to all of you at this time. I have fond memories of when I was there for Aunt Grace and Uncle Louis’s anniversary. And all the laughter we would enjoy with Don and everyone. And now the jokes are flowing with the Irwins, oh my what a time they are having. Bless you all and times are hard now but no one can take our memories away. Love to all of you.
Joann, thank you my dear sister in law for everything you did for my wonderful brother For 60 years, you are angel and have given everything you had fully for Don. He was a man who was truly blessed to have had you for a wife. You and he raised your 4 children to know the Lord and for that I am so thankful. Rest In Peace Don until we meet again. I love you both.
My sincere condolences to cousin Don’s family. Haven’t seen any of the Henry family for 30 years and when I saw Don’s picture, to me he looked a lot like my brother Bob Irwin. Had such a nice visit with Margie the other night as I surprised her with a phone call. So nice to talk to her about Don and his family. May God bless all of Don’s family as you mourn his passing.
Our sincere sympathy to you JoAnn and family. We have good memories of talks with Don over the years….he was a joy to know. Loved his sense of humo.r Will never forget the church service JoAnn Connell and I had the privilege of attending and hearing Don give his testimony. It was blessing. We pray for comfort for you all as you remember Don and may God be , Oh so near, in the days ahead. Love Cousin Janice and Delano too
Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
