Frank LaForge wrote a sympathy message

“As a Fast-Pitch umpire, I always enjoyed being 'on the dish' when Don pitched. He was always 'around the plate' which made my job much easier. I have thought of him often in the years since I left umpiring, it is sad thought to see him pass on, he will be in my memory for years to come. - Frank LaForge, Wichita”
