Jerry Smith wrote a sympathy message

“Claire, I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Don. In reading his obit one concludes this was an ongoing condition. This doesn't make your loss any easier, and my most sincere sympathy rests with you. I shared many great moments with Don. I especially recall walking in his office on many Monday mornings finding him with his New York Times spread over his desk....{ he was too busy to read it yesterday }. He was a great person to know.”
