Don was always a beloved friend. From work to seeing him at church, I will always remember that genuine smile and handshake. My prayers will will be with him and his family. Peace be with you

To the Allison family
We want you to know what a friend Don was to us working in the public service and especially at the fair. When we needed a lift up or just a conversation I knew we could count on Don. Most of the time the conversation would end up pmaking us laugh and that’s what we all needed. We will always cherish the time we had with Don.
God bless you all and we will see Don again

I worked with Don at European Woodworking in the mid 1990s after arriving from Germany. He was a generous coworker who helped this young and green German whenever he had the opportunity. He always had a funny joke ready when things got a little overwhelming for me and it was plain to see that people wanted to be around him since he always had an interesting story to tell. We enjoyed a lot of great cookouts in the European Woodworking guest house in Franklinton with other coworkers who stayed there when in town. I often think back fondly to these days. Peace be with you.

Mr. Don Allison was a bright soul, our family will miss him so. He always made us smile, laugh and he was always smiling. He was truly one of a kind. My heart is broken for Barbara, his girls and his precious grandchildren. May God wrap them in his loving arms and comfort them during this time of sorrow. Don will be greatly missed. You all will remain in our thoughts and prayers. Chad, Deanna, Trenton, Tyler & Tori Hartman

Remembering a friend!

Don was a great man and I loved him like a brother. God bless Barbara and the rest of his family, Rest in Peace my friend.

Even from afar and time Don is remembered and loved. He was always bigger than life, a joy to be with, a faithful friend.

I first met Don back in the late 80’S at Steel Case, as a young technician. He told me what he wanted and turned me loose to accomplish my work. After that first meeting I new he was a true professional at his work.
Many years later we worked together at European , and again he was a professional that new how to get work done. Don had a great scene of humor and infectious laugh that will be missed.

Pam and I were saddened to hear of Don’s sudden passing. We especially loved his dry humor! He was an inspiration to me to do more for my neighbors here in Florida. During our last visit before Thanksgiving, we enjoyed each other’s company as he gave a tour of his garage and work area. We exchanged texts back and forth from Florida to Heatherwood. I will miss him! Our condolences to his family, and his friends.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Dons family during this time of loss. He was a wonderful guy .

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of Don. We are a Heatherwood Neighbor and know Don by waves and smiles over the last year or two. Always a smile! Rest in peace.

More of a friend than anyone could ask for. Always there no matter what the situation. Don’s favorite saying to me was “If you don’t get what you need, then it’s your own fault for not asking me for it”. And truly, if you asked him for it, he delivered. I will miss him, but I know he has fought the fight and his journey is over. Rest in peace my friend until we meet again. Much love!

I met Don many years ago and he and I became friends. Don is a true friend in every since of the word. Don went out of his way to help us in every way he could think of. He invited us on vacations to lake and was always available to help out in anyway he could, when Charlie squad was short staffed he rose to the occasion to fill in.
The world has lost a fine human being that cannot ever be replaced, Don’s humor was unparalleled and was always able to change the moral as he entered a room.
Barbara, Mary Beth, Mary Kate your husband and father will always be in our thoughts.

When I started riding with G squared, you could depend on Don. I consider him a friend and a follow deputy. I hope to see him on the other side and ride with him on patrol. Don you will be missed. God be with you and your family.

David and I are so very sorry for your loss. This neighborhood will truly miss such a giving and helpful man. It was nice to have known him in the short time we’ve lived here.

I don’t think Don ever had a bad day. Always helping others with a joke or his infectious personality and loving it.
Barbara please know we all feel your loss and I ask for Gods comfort for you and your family.

Rest In Peace my FRIEND

I’ve always looked up to my Uncle Don as a role model and mentor. I’ll miss him and his jokes!

I just heard of Don’s passing. I had the privilege of working with Don at Steelcase from 1982-1985. A true friend and gentleman. Many fond, fun, and funny memories. A joy to work with. RIP Don. Jack

Barbara, I remember very fondly the times we spent together in the old days – both as young married couples and new parents. The world was a better place with him in it and I was shocked and sorry to hear about his passing. I watched his service and it was very touching, especially Mary Kate’ words. I hope this poem gives some comfort to you and your family: Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity. God bless you all. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I love you, Dawn Ryan (Allison)
