Sue, My deepest condolences to you and your family. I worked for 2 years with Don in the '90's and I always remember his warm welcoming smile and the joy that he exhibited while working with difficult students. He shared his passion of the outdoors with them and he "glowed" when they spoke of their enjoyment of the outdoor experiences that he & Bill Steer provided. He liked to call me "Ollie" whenever, he stopped by my office for a chat. He will be missed by many in the community Sincerely Olive Ridler

So sad to hear the news about my friend Don. We worked together for two summers at Arrowhead Camp in the 70's, and connected after that at a reunion I held in the 90's, a surprise visit when I lived in Port Perry, and a lovely motorcycle ride I took two years ago to North Bay. Facebook and the telephone kept us informed, and I know that I speak for Mary Burnett Gallagher and all the other Arrowhead Staff, that the world has lost a shining light. My sincerest condolences during this difficult time to Susan and the family.

I worked with Don at NEMHC and at NBRHC. I didn't mind cleaning up the messes because I knew people were having a good time. He had such a caring heart and people's faces lit up when he spoke with them because he took the time to get to know them. He set the example for caring and will be a great loss to our hospital and his family.

Dear Susan, Sarah, Nik and Heidi. I am so very sorry and sad for your loss. I have so many fond memories of Don going back to when I first met him at age 15 working at Bigwood's. I loved babysitting all of you and he would always make sure I could watch Robyn Hood when you were all asleep. (bad Kevin Costner accent and all) Don was such a support to me in my teenage years and his constant calm demeanour, great sense of humour and easy laughter and big loving heart will be missed. Sending you all lots of love. Amy xo

I am very sorry to hear that a fun-loving, caring friend will no longer be out kayaking on the lake. I will surely miss him. It was only in mid-July that we were enjoying a sunny carefree day on the dock. Sigh!

You have been a constant force and supportive brother my entire life. I always appreciated your care and respect for people, and your dedication to make others life better. You were simply a good guy. In a world of so much hate and intolerance, you stood out. I can't imagine my life without you. Words are so inadequate. 'Till we meet again!

Dear Susan and family, We are so sorry to hear of Don's passing. Our world has lost such a caring, compassionate and fun loving man. He truly was an inspiration to work with, always putting his patients' needs first and going the extra mile to bring enjoyment and peace into their lives. He served his fellow men and women and community in so many ways, his church, his in line coaching, his exemplary work with NEMHC, his friendly welcome and knowledgable and professional service at Bigwood, his genuine friendship to so many. It was always very special to experience his joy when sharing stories of you all, his family. Rest in peace, Don. We will always remember your smile and the twinkle in your eye. Hugs and prayers to you all. Diane and Don

Susan, It is with such sadness that we learned of Don's passing. Norm and I reflected today upon the many contributions Don made as a member of the Nipissing Inline Hockey League. Don provided guidance when all things around us sometimes felt too crazy. He was a gentle coach to all the kids that were fortunate enough to be on his many teams overs the years, and personally witnessing the absolute delight his family brought to him was what all should strive for. We appreciated him so very much. Please accept our most sincere condolences. Warm regards, Susan Church and Norm Marion

Dear Priebe family. I went to Fanshawe with Don and have so many wonderful memories of our time there. For two years our small group of 30 students were like a family. I was so very sorry to hear of his passing. Please know that I will keep you all in my thought and prayers. I hope all the wonderful memories you have get you through the difficult days.

To Don's family, I'm so very sorry for your loss. I worked with Don for several years both at NEMHC and when we moved to the new hospital. He was such a kind and caring man to his patients, families of patients, and his coworkers. He got a whole bunch of us together to learn about cross country skiing and I'll definitely be thinking of him when I put my skis on this winter. He will be missed.

To the family Sharon and I had the pleasure of meeting Don when my mother was at evergreen. Don was a true gentlemen and a caring sole. He treated everyone with so much care and compassion he made you feel a part of a family the work Don did could not be done by many. A kind soul,compassionate person he truly left a lasting impression with our family NINO and Sharon Cipparrone

Susan and family - extending my deepest condolences for your loss. We need more people like Don in this world - he was a terrific embodiment of personal integrity, honesty and humility. I have great memories of times spent with Don back in our Fort Erie days and was really pleased to reconnect with him in recent years through Facebook.

Don was a Saturday morning volunteer at our museum. He would always come in with a cheerful disposition and tell me stories about working at the outdoor store, camping in Algonquin, his love of Scottish culture (although he was a proud German), politics, and history. I respected him very much. He would bring in a morning hot chocolate and Timbits, I would buy him lunch at Subway. I am saddened to hear of his passing and wish my deepest sympathies to the Priebe family at this difficult time.
