To all of Don’s family we extend our sincere condolences. We had the pleasure of call Don a neighbour for many years. We would have long visits with both your mom and dad when they would walk road 6. We lovingly referred to him as the mayor of the road. In the last few years we would visit when Mr. Metcalfe would chauffeur Don around on leisurely drives around the surrounding area. Don was very knowledgeable about many things and we always had many laughs as he was up to date on everything that was happening in the neighbourhood and the world events. An avid speed boat racer in his day “Skippy” was well known and respected in the race boat community. We will miss that twinkle in his eye as he told a good joke or was string you along about something just to see how long he could fool you. His gruff demeanour was alway part of his personally that you just learned to respect but that smile and laugh could brighten any day. Hold your memories dear in your heart and remember a life well lived.
John and Pauline McElroy
