One of the truly greatest men I’ve ever known my entire life. I’ll never forget when that 3$ lawn chair wore his ass out at cabbage patch hunting camp. I would of came to his rescue but we were all laughing so hard literally it was the funniest thing I’ve ever witnessed even to this day. Nor will I ever forget the time we went to Bithlo and bought a big for a cookout and I turned it loose out back behind the bar and it ran around out there outside for hours. The owner of the bar Ann Harrell came down said this hoggs gotta get in the grill it can’t be running around like this so Don walked over got the Hogg slit it’s throat and skinned it in less than 5 min fastest best Hogg Skinner I’ve seen in my life none can hold a candle to Don . It makes me feel honored for him to have called me his friend. R.I.P. Don see you on the other side my brother.
