There are a handful of fellas on here that it's evident they are still very much in love with their wives after many years of marriage...Torch was one of those fellas

Along with all OTers, I am very sorry to learn of Don's passing. He was a good man and a friend most of us never even met and lived a life we envy. Prayers said for Don.

My sincere condolences.
I always enjoyed his posts, and so I'm very sorry to hear of his passing. I am however thankful that he chose to give us some of his time and post here often. He will be greatly missed.

Debra,

Kara and I are saddened at your loss. I had shared a few PMs with him over the years and we were planning a meet up on his next trip to Dallas. I feel like I missed out on a great presence. Kara enjoyed seeing the wildlife and flight pictures. He always spoke well of you and his love for you was obvious. Peace and comfort to you and your family.
