So sorry for the loss of a good man, personnal friend with whom I spent 20 great work years with. He had great mechanical abilities and was a kid at heart. He will be missed by his family at BASF and those who loved him greatly.

Cindy and family,
We are so sorry to hear the passing of Donald. We always enjoyed our conversations with him while at cookouts and on holidays.
He was a kind man and he enjoyed life and times with friends and family. Though we know he is no longer worrying or suffering, it doesn't help with the painful loss. You are in our thoughts and prayers. He will be missed.
