“Don negotiated all of our more difficult and complex transactions and customer and vendor agreements. [Don’s] integrity, loyalty, dependability and honesty are unmatched and beyond reproach…. He always understood the business issues on both sides, and he had the unique ability to consistently close difficult deals on terms that were extremely favorable. He accomplished this while preserving, and often strengthening, our relationship with the other side.”
