As long as I am on this Earth, I'll hear Don singing along to every Gilbert and Sullivan "patter" song. He will be at every concert at Lake Harriet ... where he conducted the Minneapolis Pops, a wonderful gift from Shirley. Will I ever see Superior, the Caribbean, a sailboat, or dine on fresh trout and not think of Don? And, as our planet, state, and country struggle with so many problems, how often will I wonder, "What words of wisdom would Don have had for us now?" As long as we remember, he will remain among us. With all my love, Carole Rydberg
