Condolence From: Earl Haslett
Condolence: Dear Marion and family,
My condolences to you and your family. Donal and I are third cousins. We met at least five times in the last thirty years, once at my residence, and it was always great to see him. His contribution to the family history of the McKeown family is well known by other relatives.

Condolence From: Michael Cote
Condolence: I was saddened to learn today of Don's passing. Don was a great friend of my father, Jack Cote, who passed away three years ago. I was out of the country during most of January and only found out today. I have known Don and Marion through Kimberly McKeown Young, over the years, as Kim's Accountant.
I always got a kick out of Don's sense of humour. My sincere condolences to Marion, Kim and all the McKeown family. I will do my best to attend the Celebration of Life .
Sincerely,
Michael D Cote

Condolence: It is difficult to believe that Donal has left us -
he was a favourite prof, a wonderful colleague, a long time mentor, relentless innovator, and a remarkable citizen. When he spoke everyone listened. He will be sadly missed by the local community and colleagues worldwide.

Condolence: I was blessed to have met Don when I was a student. Our paths have met and inter twined for the past 40+ years. We have been close friends. Among his many talents, he was a great story teller. Anyone that spent time with him was blessed sharing a story or being part of a good story. Hopefully the stories paralleled the truth.
He had no regrets and I am sure he would have said - If I had my life to live again, I'd made the same mistakes again but sooner.
I and we are blessed having been part of Don's life.
