Donald Chaltraw

Uncle, as I called you. My heart is so heavy. You know when we did see each other I would say there's my handsome Uncle. Knowing I mostly saw you when someone passed. So yes my other Uncles were there. Just so you know they were jealous. The day will come when I can say those words again. I love you Uncle :heartpulse::heartpulse::heartpulse:

So sorry for your loss Kenny and family.

Don Chaltraw was a really sweet, friendly guy who loved to make people laugh. He always had some quips to share whenever I saw him. He was a master cookie maker and was kind enough to share his baking masterpieces with me. I remember the first time he brought me cookies and he was careful to explain how the bread at the bottom of the container kept the cookies fresh and from going stale. Little did he know that once John and I got into them, they were gone pretty quick, and probably had no time to get stale. But how to keep cookies from going stale was a tidbit of information that I hadn't known before I met Don! Then when he and Kathleen first got Cupcake, they drove over to Dave's office to show her to me. I came downstairs to meet her and Don got out of the car with her so that I could meet her up close and personal, hold her, hug her, and generally just love her up. He was a thoughtful, wonderful man and he will be sorely missed. My condolences to Kathleen, Cathy, Dave, Toni, the grandkids and the entire family for your loss of this amazing man. I won't be at the funeral in person but I will be there online and in heart. My prayers go out to you all as well as big hugs in a virtual way. Love, Vicky

So sorry to hear about Don.My prayers are with your family. Love from Connie and Harold
