  1. We were saddened to hear of Don,s passing. What a great neighbor, friend, and encouraging guy. Our prayers are with the family, neighbors, and friends.

  2. Prayers of comfort and peace to the Nolting family; may you each find great joy in the memories that have been made over the years.

  3. What a difference one good man makes. You may not see or hear of each kindness, but a good man’s life weaves each act into a tapestry that we call a ‘good life’. And when we lose that man, we feel the loss not of the individual kindnesses but of the man. Instead of being sad, we should celebrate his influence on other people and the kindnesses that they perform for long past his passing. His acts are magnified in theirs until a ripple effect occurs. We feel the loss of the man, but celebrate his good life and lasting memory.

  4. Such good memories of Don – – always smiling, such a good family man. I share in the sadness at your loss – – in the wonderful hope of heaven! Hold on to the great memories and the blessings of family!

  5. Please accept our heartfelt condolences for your loss and know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

  6. Nina and family, I am so sorry for your loss and I pray God gives each of you peace which passes all understanding. God bless you and your family as you are going through this loss.

  7. Nina and Family – As life does not always unfold as we expected, we still hold to one another in faith. Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. Kathy and Jeff

  8. We’re very sorry to hear of Don’s passing, and we feel sad that we cannot attend the services. Don was a great person, and you have our sympathy. Everyone who knew Don feels a great loss, I’m sure.
