One year has passed and we still hold you DEEP in our memories. Your genorosity was simply outstanding!! I still can't believe that you've left us but we know that you're voicing with the angels. You'll never be forgotten as you have left such a huge legacy for all of as VOs to follow. Thanks Don. We miss you so much!!

Don,

Please excuse my tardiness in introducing myself. I'm just now taking off the VO water wings.

There is a certain comfort and pride in now calling myself a colleague of yours. This is both humbling and inspiring. I will hold the torch you pass to me with both hands.

The beauty of the business is that the work of the pioneers is forever captured for those that follow. Your legacy is waist-deep in all corners of the world.

I wish you peace.

Yo dude, what's going on? You don't know me, but I'm hoping you will soon. Since you've been gone, the quality of voice over has, for the lack of a better term, sucked. Yes, we still have Hal Douglas, but let's face it: we need a guy who has a lot of conviction. Any chance you can get yourself out of the ground (or put your ashes back together) so you can get back to work?

If you can't, that's sad, because you're one of the voice actors I wanted to meet. All I ever wanted was to shake your hand. It sucks that I'll never get that chance.

I've noticed that since Don passed, there is a lot less voice overs in movie promos...

There isn't a time that goes by when I am trying to make it big in this VO biz, where I am not reminded of the wonderful DON LaFontaine.
Thanks, and hope that Nita and the girls are doing okay, I still cry hard for my pops who passed in 2005. When it gets tough, just breathe. Best, Jessie Gilman
