So sorry for your loss, Praying God will give you a peace that no man can understand as you realize he is now at HOME. Will keep you in my prayers.
Linda and Justin, sending you my deepest sympathies. Don was such a sweet, kind-hearted man, he will be missed by many but not as much as with you all. Sending you Love and prayers for strength and comfort during this most difficult time.
Art and I have so many fond memories of times we spent together. Wednesday night get together at The Bent Saw were the highlight of our week. Don had the warmest heart, and the chilliest eats that felt so nice on hot summer evenings when we would hug hello or goodbye. He was a truly good man, and if he was your friend, you were truly blessed. We will always hold him in our hearts.
We are so very sorry to hear of Don’s passing. You are all in our thoughts and we will keep you all in our prayers. May all the wonderful memories that you made together give you comfort at this time.
Linda, Justin and Kristen – I was real sorry to hear of Don’s passing. He was always so friendly, a sweet person, happy go lucky, easy going way as you state above. The type of person that would give you the shirt off his back. He was very funny and my observations were always of a man that loved his family dearly and loved life, lived life. My condolences, thoughts and prayers with you all and your family through this very difficult time. He will always be with you, in your hearts and memories and in you and your children/grandchildren.
Linda, Kristin and Justin,
I am saddened to hear about your husband/dad. I will always remember his willingness to help with Scouts, sports, school or anywhere a volunteer was needed. The world was left a better place for Nr Higgins having been a part of it. Love, hugs and prayers to each of you.
Dear Linda, Condolences aren’t enough. For Rob to have loved Don is a big thing. I pray God will give you an easy heart, as you mourn. JoAnne Wood
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Don was a great guy that would help anyone. He will be missed
