Remembering A Good Friend
Today is Don Spitler’s birthday. Or would have been. One year ago this week Don’s airplane crashed 3 miles short of the Northway Airport. I believe he died doing something he loved doing. Being out in nature and challenging himself with yet another goal, flying his own airplane.
Don was a goal setter who accomplished much in his life time. He loved hunting, fishing, staying fit. He was bright, funny and loved his family very much. I don’t have a picture on my computer of Don, but I do want to share some photos from last year’s memorial of family and people who considered him a good friend.
As I took an early morning walk with Rudy, and watched the clouds hugging the mountain side, smelling the freshness of new blooms, I can’t help but think Don would enjoy a morning like this one.
