Don was my step-dad. He married my mother when I was an angsty 13yo. He filled the hole that my own birth father created. He supported me as my dad and was all the things I didn't know I wanted or needed. I had him for 10 years before tragedy struck our family and he died unexpectedly. He was a multi-organ and tissue donor and I have the greatest comfort knowing the lives of so many were positively impacted by him and that hopefully families were able to make memories we didn't get the chance to make.
