One of the cat rooms, Mum and Don would spend hours hanging out with the cats, also remember the many Sundays at the skating rink on portage with good people and good times, a man of many talents had traveled the world and was content with a simple life,

I worked with a Don Stevens in Air Canada Finance Winnipeg .Our connection at work was musical I played accordion, Don played guitar and there was another employee Walter Sukaylo who played Saxaphone. Several times we were asked to provide entertainment at Air Canada Christmas get togethers.As I recall I believe Don had a hobby of flying model airplanes.I once visited his home on Assiniboine Ave West I believe to practice music for on of our engagements.I lost track of Don when I retired in 1992.

We knew Don best from the first half of his life as Terry's brother-in-law, best man at our wedding, and uncle to our children. He was always happiest when chatting with other people, sharing stories and a cup of coffee. In later years, we always enjoyed his impromptu visits to our home. Sincere condolences to Andy and Don's second family.

Don was a very kind, humourous, smart, talented, fair person.  He was a good patient teacher who had good common sense.

Sorry to hear that Don passed. Don and Lynne were great neighbors on the acreage. We had many memories of roller skating with Don along with Lynne and grandchildren. Dinners in and out. Pat spent many times doing archery with Don and I had a great visit when I returned to Manitoba in the spring of 2017. Rest In Peace. Pat and Marilyn

I will miss you Pops. We had so many good times over the last few years. All the trips to Gimli and Winnipeg Beach. The walks in Bird's Hill Park, trips to Walmart for mountains of cat food and litter. We got to know Beausejour very well too, we walked every inch of it. We had fun with the lovely ladies at Pennyweight and the Beau. Picnics in Train Whistle Park. Rest easy and know I loved you.❤
