To the Family and Friends of Don, I have great memories of my time with Don, starting out as a pledge at Phi Gamma Delta and, for the most part, ending when we both left UT to enter the Navy. He was always the guy with the big smile and friendly countenance. Always upbeat. Helped carry many of us through the trials and tribulations of being a pledge and surviving Hell Week. But beneath that friendly personality was a dedicated focused person. I know how difficult it is for a reserve officer to win 4 stripes in the Naval Reserve. A great achievement. I saw Don only a few times after he located in Indiana. I regret that. I feel that I am a better person for having Don in my life. Ben West
