I remember Don fondly. We played tennis often at both the New Canaan Country Club and Vista Indoor tennis. He was a true gentleman in every sense of the word. Kind, funny, caring and a great person to be around. After our first son was born (23 years ago), Don gave me some helpful advice about parenthood. He said, "George, as a parent, you are not in a democratically elected position. Sometimes, you will have to be firm; other times; compromise is needed; but always listen".
Though it has been a few years since I have seen Don, so I hope his ending was a peaceful one.
On behalf of the entire Benington family, we extend our heartfelt condolences. Please let us know if there is anything you need.
