Jean Brown Wright wrote a sympathy message

“I am so sorry to read of Don's passing. I shall always remember him as a thoughtful, funny and caring neighbor. He was a consummate craftsman in his profession of carpentry. A job done by Don was always a job well done. His repairs on my mother's house and mine showed a pride of craft that I loved and respected. All my sympathy to the Kirby family. Please know that you are not alone in your sorrow. Jean Wright”
