Dad, I have been living in New Zealand with my New Zealand born wife (Luana) and my son (Jackson) whom I love very much. It has been 16 years and unbelievable how time flies, but I never forget the good times we all as a family had when growing up!!! I remember the quaint house in Hamilton, Ontario, where I was born, though small it had so many memories. To your much larger home in Winnipeg, Manitoba. You always made sure we were looked after, and provided for, there is not enough paper to write everything down, just know Dad I loved you no matter what. - Posted by: Brian and Luana Taylor (Brian taylor (Don;s Youngest Son)) on: Mar 12, 2014

I am very saddened to hear the passing of my stepfathers Dad....The times I spent with him when I would visit Winnipeg were always joyful and I just want to pass on my condolences to the rest of the Taylor family in this very hard time. Lots of Love Jackson Taylor from New Zealand. - Posted by: Jackson Taylor (Step Grandson) on: Mar 12, 2014

Uncle Don and Aunt Josie were always favourites of mine. The relationship they forged with us was different from other aunts and uncles. It was more personal. It was as if they recognized us for who we were as people, not what we were as nephews. They were special. I'll miss them. - Posted by: James Blair Lyttle (nephew )cousin really)) on: Mar 10, 2014
