This is heart breaking 💔 news. Please accept my deepest condolences to Marion and the entire Mumby clan. I worked for Don as his administrative assistant for several years in the mid-80's - I loved his sense of humour - we had a great rapport and could make the other laugh or smile when having a bad day. Like Don, my dad was a Mason so we had more than just work in common - Don enlightened me to some things "Masonic" that my dad never had so I acquired a greater understanding and appreciation for what that organization stands for and believes in. I'm sure Don will be greatly missed by many people. Rest in Peace my friend.
My Condolences to Marion and the Mumby family
