I have been acquainted with Don for well over ten years. During that time, I have observed Don in several roles including neighbor, volunteer fireman and bowling partner. Quiet and unassuming, Don could easily be over -looked but he is always there for anyone in need. Don was active as a volunteer fireman until work hours conflicted with training session hours. He was always one of the first individuals on the scene making contributions with his medical knowledge. Common sense and a "level -head" made him invaluable. Bowling with Don brought out a competitive side but also a true team spirit. His sense of humor and easy attitude encourage compatibility with others. Don possesses all the attributes when one thinks of an outstanding individual honest, loyal, dedicated, hardworking and dependable. Don Veden would receive my highest possible recommendation. If you have specific questions, I would be most happy to reply to them. You may reach me in the evenings at 330-6119. Sincerely, L... > Gerald D. Medbery gdm qr Hello
