Don was my best friend from early years when we sang in Mennonite Children's choir (Mrs. Litz). Even though Don was a grade above me in MBCI we did a lot of things together. Same sports teams. He was always a technical wizard with motors and electronics. I joked with him that his little workshop behind their home on the Assiniboine River was a true Peter Rempel quality. He excelled at water skiing which I got better at watching him. Boats, go-karts, snowmobiles, racing cars these were his passions. We started a business together selling snowmobiles, boats and yard care equipment. He was the consummate salesman. We attended Goshen College the same year and drove down together. Don was like a member of the family at the Redekopp home and joined us for many events and some travel. We always had great talks and he was definite in his thoughts and opinions. I will miss his friendship. Edwin Redekopp - Posted by: Ed Redekopp (Close Friend) on: Mar 17, 2024
