Most, unless they were involved in local football and other sports or lived in Brid, will have come across Don. Had the pleasure of being in his company many times in the clubhouse at Brid Town and at presentation nights when my kids were playing junior football and at rep team presentations. A wonderful raconteur who gave his time freely to many causes. Fascinating to hear him talking, and even reading his own poems, in long forgotten East Yorks dialects.
RIP Don.
