"My greatest memory of Don was going to Mackinaw Island and walking the Mackinac Bridge when I was in High School. That was my first time out of Wisconsin! Kevin and I drove up there to St. Ignace, Michigan. We saw the island, did the Labor Day Bridge walk, and enjoyed the U.P. I always remember seeing Don in church at St. Benedict's and he has been a regular attendant all these years! I will always remember Don. My condolences to the Scullys and family!"
In loving memory of
Donald "Don" Scully
