Re: [IRCA] Don Kaskey - SK

This hurts!

Since I was local to Don, I called him quite a few times and was a guest at
his house once.  He and his wife were both very nice people and very
gracious.  I really enjoyed talking with Don and I'm feeling a big
emptiness right now with this news.  Likely nothing compared to the sadness
that his family feels.  Listening to him and his stories, he had a good
life.  He can be grateful for that, and we can be grateful for our memory
of him.
