To the Rosborough families, I was sorry to hear of Don's passing. I remember him and Jim on "the farm" at their parent's house, in the 50's and 60's. My condolences. John Hurlbut

To all of Don's Family,I offer my deepest sympathy and condolence to my dear old friend,Don.Our friendship dates back to the 1960's where Don,Jim,Aunt Lil and Uncle Dan (Don's Mom and Dad) lived in the house at the top of the hill on my Dad's (TJ Branton) old farm ,Branton Acres.I enjoyed many great summers at the farm as a boy with fond memories of Don and his great family.Don was a true gentleman,always more interested in the best interests of others.I was just thinking of Don recently,having not seen him for the past few years since moving to Victoria.Don is a testament to how courageously he battled diabetes his entire life.Don was the essence of positive thinking,whereby his glass was always "half full". Again,my sincere (heart felt) sympathy and empathy to your family Don,and to brother Jim (my friend)who was also a special part of my summers at the old "farm". God Bless.
