  1. Dear Marlee, we are so very sorry for the loss of your beloved Don. He was a wonderful man with a quick wit and great sense of humor. I’ll always remember him being ready with a sharp joke and a laugh. He was a kind and loving partner to you and I know he will be missed greatly. Please know you are in our prayers during this difficult time of tremendous loss. With love and sympathy, the Whitlock Family

  3. It is so sad to say goodbye to our neighbor and friend, Don. We will miss seeing him tend to his beloved peonies that he transferred from his parents’ home in Roanoke, and he often would share the fragrant blooms with us. Our pup will miss getting belly rubs from him as he always beamed at the sight of her. We are grateful to have had many memorable times together with Don and Marlee.

  5. I’ve known Don for a long time. He used to live in the apartment above me with his son Brad before he married Marlee who is my best friend. Don was a good provider and a very nice person to know. I will miss him.

  6. We have known Don and Marlee for many years- even though we both retired from Ford and they eventually moved to Asheville- we have always tried to keep in touch. We were so saddened to hear of Dons sudden passing.
    Marlee you are in our every thought and prayers at this time- we are so sorry for what you are going through.

    Never forget all the wonderful memories you and Don shared together- no matter what he will always be in all our hearts and never forgotten
    David and Linda
