Introduction

Donald was my brother. He was a highly intelligent man, although he had been unable to pursue a higher education. Donald educated himself and knew a great deal about history, art, literature, science, and music. He especially loved music and cultivated an appreciation of classical music in me that continues to this day. Donald was truly someone who thought for himself. He was able to think outside the box and also possessed a wicked and delicious sense of humor. Donald had great compassion for others--and cared for animals immensely. He worked in a factory all of his life, but was a talented artist. During the last years of his life, he delighted in being a member of the Turtle Clan, a group of retired professors who meet at Arby's. I am just sorry that I did not have my brother longer.
