Sorry for your loss
Love Steve Kelly & Mason
We are so very sorry for your loss. Don was a wonderful man! When we would see him, he always had a warm greeting, broad smile, strong handshake, loving hug, and we would enjoy our conversation with him always. We both feel honored to have had your father touch both of our lives. We hope that the many wonderful memories of him and the messages from all of those that he touched will help you through this difficult time. Sending our love and prayers.

I am so glad I got to know your Dad. He was a wonderful person. Enjoyed being with him at volleyball and our group gather gathering s.
My deepest sympathies to the entire Graves family. Mr. Graves was the most honest and nicest gentleman I ever met. He always greeted me with a smile and strong handshake. Like Launa Trinque's comment, I frequently got told to call him Don instead of Mr. Graves, but I couldn't. I loved his competitive nature with sports and was always happy see him on the softball field or volleyball court. He made Union a better place to live.
My heart is heavy knowing we lost an incredible man to soon. I know Hazel is happy to have her husband with her and her son in heaven. Please know my family is praying for your family. Mr Graves was so incredible and knowing him was a honor. He treated me like one of his own, he cared so deeply for everyone he met. I am happy to say my family was blessed by having him in it.
