Sending our sincere sympathies to Elaine, Jo & Vicci and families on the sad passing of Don. We have lovely memories of Don & Elaine visiting Padraig's family in Tipperary some years ago. We cherish those memories. Don was loved so much by all his family and his grandchildren. We will be thinking of you at this difficult time.

So sorry to hear of the sudden loss of Don. He was a wonderful man. I had the pleasure of playing many golf rounds with him and chatting with him in the clubhouse.
He always had a beautiful smile and a cheeky grin.
Don was a unique character who was keen to share a funny story or anecdote.
I was amazed at his adventurous spirit telling me of his excursions in the bush when going off hunting.
I would have him on about wearing a business shirt on the golf course (rather than the standard polo shirt) and ask him which special place he was off to in his fancy `dress shirt´ after golf. Don always did things his own unique way. He was a joy to be around.
We will miss Don very much at the golf course.
He had such a strong love for
Elaine and his family.
Thinking of you all in this very sad time.

Very saddened to hear the news of Don's passing. I played many rounds of golf with Don at the QGC. Will miss all the banter & his positive vibe. I'll always remember Don for hitting his driver off the deck in just about every round on the 16th hole... Will think about him every time I'm walking up that hill. RIP farmer Don. My heart goes out to you Elaine and all the family at this time of grief.
