I was so sorry to hear of Don's passing. I worked with Don for many years at ADS and was his dispatcher for many of those. He was a joy to know and work with. He was always upbeat. I pray that the Lord will wrap you in His loving arms and give you peace and comfort in the days and weeks ahead.

Val, Doug, Shelley, and Darla:
I wish I had the words to express how sorry I am over the loss of Uncle Don. He was a great man that was loved and respected by the entire family. May God give you peace and long lasting memories of a great husband, father, and grandfather.

I am praying for your sweet family during this time. Shelley is a wonderful friend to me and I am touched by the stories she has shared about her sweet Daddy. He not only was a great Dad, but was a strong fighter is his battle with cancer. May you Rest in Peace Mr. Bannister, and I rejoice that you are in the arms of Jesus!

Val and family,
James and I will always remember all the good and fun times our families shared. The church functions we attended together, the times we shared at dinners, and James and Don's fishing trips and our children growing up together. The list goes on and on. Don was a good friend and we will miss him. We love you and your family and are praying for God's love and strength to comfort and give you peace at this time.
Love,
James and Faye

Rest in peace my sweet daddy, you have been the greatest dad and pawpaw. I will deeply miss our daily hugs. Thank you for the unconditional love for us kids and thank you for being a great role model to your grandkids, they cherished you so much. Not sure how to move forward but I will find the strength you gave me and will honer your name..
Always in my heart! I love you daddy!
