Rita, Paige and family - our heartfelt condolences in the loss of dear Don. Our memories go back to the very early days at 3M where Don and Al shares workplace at Central Research, and couples enjoyed each others’ company of laughter and meals together. He will ever be remembered for his subtle wit, his gentle demeanor and interest in everyone he met. This obituary the family has written in wonderful, detailed and informative in things about him and his life we did not know before! Allen and Judy Taylor

Don brought much fun and enjoyment to our work together in our early days at 3M. His humor was infectious. He delighted in fun sayings like "I don't understand all I know about it". To this day my children look for "feckages" in the dictionary, a word I picked up from Don who used it to describe defect specks we saw in microscope samples. As important, his technical acumen was always a God-send. My deepest sympathy to Rita, their children and grandchildren, and Don's whole family. He was a treasure to know and experience. Jim Packard

Don was a 3M co-worker, a friend, and occasional golf opponent. He was at one point my direct supervisor at 3M and was a good mentor. It is a pleasure to have known Don and Rita, and to have memories of some great Christmas parties at our house in the good old days! RIP Don, and condolences to Rita and the family.

I send my deepest sympathy to Rita, Leslie, Wade , Paige and your families. My husband worked with Don at 3M in Central Research, beginning in 1963. So we have had the pleasure of knowing Don and Rita for many years! There were many wonderful parties, bridge games and celebratory events in the course of thirty years. My husband passed in 2014; I know he would want me to convey the admiration and respect he and I had for Don. Janell Christmann
