Well it was a sad but memorable day on July the 7th. Madam Claire’s clan gathered to remember one of Claire’s favorite great grandsons. Don was the original go to man for Claire’s clan. He was pretty handy with just about any kind of tool and could build or repair dang near anything. Rumor has he built Claire’s original b***y house in Reno (probably just a rumor). He’s best remembered as always being there when he was needed. Don had a bit of a rep back in the day as being someone you didn’t mess with and provided coverage for the younger grandsons in situations when folks got a little too pushy. We were always glad he was around to run interference and will be greatly missed. Rest in peace Don.
