Wes Clark wrote a sympathy message

“Don was a splendid humorist... when we both did Civil War reenacting (1985-1993 and again from 2008 to 2013) he contributed to the Third Maryland (U.S.) newsletter, which quickly became famous among historical reenactors due to the quality of the articles and drawings. You can read Don's "Mal Stylo" (his pen name) articles by going here: http://wesclark.com/jw/malstylo_index.html He was a great friend to me for the forty years we knew each other, and I will miss him.”
