"Thoughts and prayers are with you the Kuhny family. Wish we could be there with you. Your father was a wonderful man. Love you."
Jane A O'Brien from MICHIGAN CITY, IN
"Very sorry to hear of Don's death. What a good man and a great partner to Judy … and for all those years. We were always welcome into your family home and your dad was a gracious, hospitable and fun host. I love this photo of them together. They were a wonderful model of marital love and fidelity. He was kind enough to visit my dad and pray the Divine Mercy caplet as my father's health declined and we were always grateful for that. God bless Don!"
Michael, Wendy, Christine, and Kimberly Kuhny from San Jose, CA
"Prayers and love from San Jose. Proud to be a “Don Son”, Daughter-in-law, and Granddaughters of him. He has taught us so much. We will miss him dearly. Well done Dad. XO"
