Don Kutneiwski was a very good neighbor. He loved to tell a joke in conversation. He was very devoted to Joan, his wife, which was great to see. I am happy that Don and Joan, relayed to me how much they loved their family and the beautiful home in Bristol, and the fun times they had traveling after retirement. As a neighbor, Don blessed us with helping to lay the linoleum on our kitchen floor, fix some counter tops and he put in the storm window for the upstairs bathroom. I will always be grateful for the help he gave my family, other neighbors, as well as the Community. What a blessing to have known Don and Joan. May God’s loving arm surround Don’s wonderful family in their loss.
