Jacob DeHollander wrote a sympathy message

“Renae and family, we were so sorry to hear of Shaggy’s passing. He was a good friend and always very kind. He took care of our son when he was two years old. He gave him a stuffed teddy bear which still sits at the head of his bed and our son is now 43. We are keeping you and your family in our prayers. love Jay and Yvonne DeHollander”

Jill Sherman wrote a sympathy message

“Renae & family, I am an old friend of Don’s H.S. years where the big group of us who hung out together fondly called him “Shaggy”.Since I heard of his untimely passing I’ve had you in my thoughts and I just want to say how incredibly sorry I am that you have lost your gem of a man at such an early age. I only imagine how wonderful your lives have been with him in it. I’ll always remember his big smile, his kind words, the twinkles in his eyes. May your memories comfort you. Jill (Shafer)Sherman”
