Dear Janet and family,
I am so sorry. Don was a wonderful man and a great neighbor. Don and Janet were always there when I needed help. During difficult times, it is comforting to know that others care about you. You all are in my prayers.
Love,

Jan & the “Boys,”
My sincere condolences. Don was a tremendous friend, supervisor at work, and lifting instructor. I’ll never forget the weightlifting sessions I had with him in your basement when you boys were just kids. We couldn’t have had better next-door neighbors!
Best wishes,
Walt Wildemann

My Pop-pop, Donald Leach, was a fantastic man who always made time for his gradkids and loved us all honestly. He was a man a few words, but when he did speak he was straightforward and truthful. He was a man who believed in living life in the moment, and I will miss him from the bottom of my heart. I love you and miss you Pop-pop.
Sincerely,
Mary Grace Leach
