The Murray family (Mary Jo, Tom, Janet and Jerry) would like to extend their deepest sympathy to the Quintus family. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
When our father "Bud" (Maurice J. Murray) died in November 1981 Don and Lynne did so much for us. At the time, my husband (Brian) and I were stationed in Twentynine Palms, California (Marine Corps training base) and only I was able to fly back for the funeral. In a snow storm, Don and Al Denny drove down to Des Moines to pick me up at the airport. I'll always remember their friendly, supportive faces as I stepped off the plane. We enjoyed good conversation on the drive home to Klemme. Don and Lynne shared many "outings" with my parents. Those kind of memories live with you forever.
May peace be with the Quintus family during your time of grief.

Don was always a friend to me. Had a good sense of humor & quick with a smile. Spoke what was on his mind & didn't pull punches. He will be missed.

Lynne, Ken, Brad and families,
Don will certainly be missed! He always had a smile and a friendly greeting for all of "Klemme kids" at school events or out in the community. He never forgot a face and he always asked about what we were doing. He really took an interest and gave positive encouragement. (Brad, remember the '50s musical? Your dad joked about me being your "aunt".)
And how fun to see many of you a few years ago at the St. Paul Winter Carnival. I will always remember that - what a fun evening we had. (It's not often the Klemme folks show up in St. Paul)
Don is in a better place but we will miss him on this Earth. All of the McClures will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.

Our deepest sympathies are with you Lynne,Ken & Deb & Brad.
Always enjoyed visiting with Don, usually at church or the chapel. Some of my earliest memories are of the Quintus family & their devotion to their family and church.
Your friend,

Dear Quintus family,
I just read about Don's passing on a Klemme facebook page, and wanted to say I'm thinking of you. I know Don was a blessing to your family and you must be missing him very much. God bless.
