    Dad was a kind and gentle person in which he didn’t tell me how to live.
    He lived and let me watch him do it. Dad will be greatly missed, but
    Never forgotten for he will be in our hearts forever and he will continue to watch
    Over us from his everlasting home.

    down to let us know they are happy.”

    We enjoyed hearing Don describe his many adventures over the years as a private pilot. He and Shirley were a part of our "six pack" group. We took lots of day trips discovering Central Florida together. We experienced many fun times on our travels and ate (and toasted) at some terrific restaurants along the way. We will remember Don's carefree smile and fun and loving personality. We miss you, Don.
    With love,

    We had the best time on this day with Uncle Donnie and Aunt Shirley! We bought cases of cabbage and he showed us how to make traditional haluski the next day. We will never forget the fun and family memories we had with him. ❤️

    No words can express the sadness we feel today. We appreciate all his love, support and kindness he showed to everyone, no matter if it was family, friends or neighbors. He will surely be missed and he will live in our hearts forever. My sister was blessed to marry such a wonderful man.

    How do you find someone who did not like Don? The answer is never. He was the description of kindness that was written all over his face.
    Glad I had the pleasure to know him from Bocce. It was beautiful to see the love between Shirley and Don, the perfect couple. I think Don would love for us all to pass the kindness on. Do a good deed today in memory of Don.

    Don was always the kindest and most caring person in any room and had a laugh and smile that could brighten anyone’s day. He treated me as if I was family and I’ll forever be thankful for time spent with him and his family!

    Don will certainly be missed but I will cherish the memories.

    Thoughts and prayers for the entire Yasick Family! ❤️
