Happy 68th Birthday Dad. You were a legend with a heart of gold, an intelligent and thoughtful man that will live in my heart and soul forever. Brooke
From former classmate Be ky Holden: I had a world history lecture class and sat in between Don and Dan Rourke and they were so funny that they made me laugh so hard I couldn't stop. Even when the teacher asked me what was so funny, I ended up in the hall because I couldn't stop. They didn't get in any trouble because they could fake a straight face. I am blessed that I ever had two wonderful friends;so sad that they both passed away in such senseless ways.
Love and prayers
I've known Don all my life, I watched him come up through the Ranks, starting from Cadet all the way to becoming Police Chief, he was a very Good Man and will be missed, The Barnum Family have my Deepest Sympathy. James R. Dandron
Went to school with the entire Barnum Family, and Don always stood out as such a character. He could turn a frown upside down. RIP old friend. You will be remembered fondly by the citizens of St.Clair. Michele Malane
