Don was one of the first people I met when I started going to MDRS meetings and hadn't met many people in the field yet. He befriended me there, and was always so friendly every time we met subsequently. I remember visiting his home in Toronto once, picking up some music at a shop on the way, and then he happily played one of my new CDs on his new stereo set-up, loudly, even though it wasn't the type of music he usually enjoyed. Fond memories.
