I extend sincere sympathy to JoLynn and family, Karen, Judy, Bob, Doug, Tammy and David and families. May the Spirit embrace and comfort you as you care for one another and receive the love of family and friends. I remember Don's good humour and his teaching skills---even with a stubborn pony or too high fence. With great thanks and enduring fond memories of being neighbour kids, going to church and school together.

I really enjoyed working with Don in finishing off the garage. Always willing to let me use his Sheetrock jack. Always learned a few tricks to the trade of construction..always admired the vast amount of talent he had and shared with me. Loved sharing stories and jokes..always friendly and willing to lend a helping hand. Don fought a great fight and never heard him complain. He will be missed. Love you Jo and our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Nor and Rose

Don and I were hired the same year to teach and coach at M-OC. We had the JV football program and took turns being the head coach one week and the team prayer the next week. We both agreed the team prayer was more pressure! I also convinced Don to join the basketball staff knowing that he was "great WITH and FOR kids"!
Seven years later we both left M-OC, again the same year. I went to Northwestern and Don took a job at Ellsworth Junior College. Quite frankly, we had very little contact. Maybe a Christmas card or see each other at Tulip Festival, but would rarely see each other. Then two years ago Adam Vander Schaaf told me that Don was battling lung cancer. So I decided to call him every 2-3 weeks just to cheer him up. I called, but the truth is that HE cheered me up!! Amazing!
If I would ever get a terrible disease like Don, I pray that I can be half the man he had been during his battle! He has been an inspiration!
Jo, Shahna, Tara and the entire Van Steenwyk family, please know that you are in our prayers...
God bless,
Todd and Connie Barry

Jo and Family,
I was shocked to hear of Don's passing. I worked with Don at Citation Homes and the first thing that comes to my mind is that he was a "HOOT"! I will always remember his quick wit and laughter. If I needed something done he was one of the first to volunteer to help. I'm glad we got to catch up with you two a couple months ago. We will keep all of you in thoughts and prayers. Hang tight to those great memories we saw in your video tribute!
Art (Al) and Loralei Mulder

I'm really sorry to hear about Don's passing. I have a lot of great memories playing pool and chess with Don years ago. I could rarely beat him in either game. Although, he would always tell me I was just as good. I always knew he was just being nice. Don was a fantastic friend and neighbor. He would always be there to help or do anything for a friend. This world has lost a really great guy. They don't make many like him.

We will forever remember all the good times shared with Don & Jo over chocolate ice cream. Both of you are special friends and we will always love and remember Don's sense of humor and wit. Many good chats are among our favorite memories. And of course we can't forget all the funny "cat" experiences!!! God speed, Don. God must have needed a REALLY good carpenter in heaven for some very special project. Can't wait to see what that project might be.
