I met him only once, about five years ago in Fort Yukon. I helped him unload a lawn mower out of an airplane and load it in the back of his truck. We had a good conversation about Trump.

It sounds like he did a bang up job for Alaska. RIP.
My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

RIP and thanks for your service Don!
I love the smell of burning spruce---I love the sound of a spring time goose---I love the feel of 40 below---from my trapline I will never go!

He was a trapper if I remember that right.
Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

He was a trapper if I remember that right. Not only was he a trapper, but back in the 1970's he was the Alaska Trappers' Association Trapper of the Year! NO other state's trappers can say that! RIP Don. Congressman for All Alaska... Pete
