Oh my God I am so sad to hear that. I just saw his name added to the drivers list for 2004 from Raceway Park. I don't understand. Was he ill?

My prayers go out to his family.

Hi Edgar... Just got home from the viewing, what a crowd!! Don died while on his computer at home, from what I understand he had a heart attack.

My condolences to the family of course..

I met Don over the Turnpike bridge this past summer on route to a Challenge event. Discovered we're neighbors & were planning on going racing a few times too...

Sorry to hear, very sad....

Glad he was able to be a CCDV points racer & have his name on the Trophy.

I got to the viewing about 7:05 & there was already a crowd. I feel a little bad because the priest came in around 7:30 & I still hadn't had the opportunity to personally pay my respects. Don seemed to have a very nice family. The photo's of him with his hot blue '76 Vette were nice to see. We should dedicate the first Challenge Race in 2004 to his memory!!
