I had the privilege of knowing Don and working alongside him on various occasions throughout much of my career. For many years, we collaborated with a group of Arkansas legislators, educators, and civic leaders appointed by the governor to support innovative practices in K-12 schools. Don was an exceptional individual—intelligent, articulate, friendly, and always, in my view, on the right side of things. After reading his obituary, I realized that I had only glimpsed a small fraction of his remarkable life. My heartfelt condolences to his family. We can find comfort in the legacy Don has left behind, an exemplary model for us all.

My name is Kimmy Wofford, and I had the absolute joy of being Dons personal fitness trainer.
I welcomed him in my gym with open arms, as he did me when I started training him at his home many years ago.
The goal was to keep him mobile and moving, so he could do as much as he could and remain at home til the end.
We achieved that!!!!🦾🦾
He was determined to do anything I asked of him, even if it failed! Haha!
I will surely miss his warm hugs and embracing warmth that he had everytime I showed up.
He always called me the "Torture Lady!!"🤣🤣
Everytime we finished a session, he would send me on my way of positive thoughts to me and my family!
Thank you to his children Mary Kathryn and Johnathon for believing in me and being the perfect fit for this amazing human I was lucky enough to know!
I love this family!!!
RIP Don, until we meet again.❤️🥰
