  1. Kay and Family, I’m very sorry for your loss. Don is blessed to be with the Lord, free from pain. He was blessed here on Earth to have all of you too. May your memories make you smile.

    Love, Theresa

  2. My most vivid memory of our neighbor Don was his smile and the kindness in his voice when he greeted us while we were walking Sammie and Buddy. His heartfelt displays during every Holiday brightened the skies and brought smiles to everyone’s faces. He was a courageous man and Veteran and also a leader in Boy Scouts. He made a difference in many peoples lives. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

  3. I worked with Don for many years at AT&T Network Systems.
    He was a good friend and I admired him greatly. We had
    many many good times. I still miss him. RIP my old friend!!!!!

  4. Donald Papineau lived in the corner house next door to us in Chicago on Kostner Ave. I was a buddy of his sister Sandy as we were the same age. I remember many good times with the Papineau’s as I was growing up in my preteen and teen years. I did connect with Sandy many years later but have lost contact. Would love to know how she is doing.
