    My most sincere thoughts are with you as your heart’s are so heavy. Seeing Don with Joan in Florida over the years is how I will remember him most. Living his best life, always looking so sharp, golfing, playing cards, lawn bowling, hanging at the pool. His reward for a life well lived and hard work. Way, way to short I know. I am most grateful for Don as one of my dad’s favorite coffee buds and the friendship they shared.
    Sending you strength and courage as you face the days ahead.

    A BEND IN THE ROAD
    ———————————
    By Helen Rice Steiner

    Condolences to Joan and all the families;

    Sometimes we come to lifes crossroads and we view what we think is the end
    But God has a much wider vision and He knows that its only a bend.

    The road will go on and get smoother and after we’ve stopped for a rest’
    The path that lies hidden beyond us is often the path that is best

    So rest and relax and grow stronger, let go and let God share your load
    Have faith in a brighter tomorrow – you’ve just come to a bend in the road

    Dear Joan and Family
    Although it has been several years since we last saw Don at Maple Leaf Estates, we can still clearly picture his smile and hear his laugh. That’s nature of the impression Don made on people. I think I told you earlier Joan that Maple Leaf was not the same for us without you two there and now we are truly saddened by your loss which is also our loss. He was too good to be gone this soon. We hope the support of family and friends offers you some comfort in knowing how much Don meant to so many people.

    Yes, we to are saddened to lose Don ,our good friend.
    Jerry and Don were coffee buddies for many many years here in Exeter,and then when Don and Joan came to Maple Leaf in Florida,he joined in with the group down there.
    As of last week Jerry felt privileged to pick Don up and take him for coffee 3afternoons …wherever Don was he always created a happy and fun loving atmosphere.
    He could tell a good story and liked to join in on a good laugh, or a phisty discussion.
    We are going to miss you good buddy ,but we will never forget you!
    Rest in Peace….you are in a better place now.

    Joan and family,

    So sorry to hear of Don‘s passing. A great guy and a good friend. We miss being able to work with him in the Maple Leaf woodshop and fish with him in Florida. He was a good golfing buddy and a tough opponent at the poker table. We think of his wry smile often.

    I knew Don Heywood for over sixty years. He had many fine qualities, but the one I appreciated the most was that he was a quiet person. I am also a quiet person so I was always happy to be in his company (even if we didn’t talk much).

    In giving some thought to what I wanted to say in my message of condolence I was reminded of an old saying: “Be careful of the quiet ones. They are the ones who actually think.”

    I will miss Don’s quiet manner.
