My mom Mamie sends her sincere condolences to the family. She was very fond of Don and had worked for him for many years prior to her retirement. I also had the opportunity to meet him when I'd come home to visit mom. He was always a very kind man to me every time. R.I.P. Don

I have such great memories of visiting the Braschlers during our college years. I always felt like family in their home. Mr. Braschler was a wonderful person and I know he was a cherished father to my dear friend Cheryl.

Have many fond memories of visiting South Haven and dropping into the bakery. The food was always delicious and Don and the whole Braschler clan always were so much fun to be with! Enjoyed our fishing trip to Canada several years ago and eating fresh walleye expertly prepared by Don! We love you all and send our heart felt condolences.

We always looked forward to their return from Florida in the spring, and catching up with him as he walked through the woods, ravine, and along the beach checking out the changes and sharing his memories. We will miss his smile and stories, and his dedication to the natural world of Winding Creek Estates.

We've lived across the ravine from Don and Joyce for 20 years, and have enjoyed many conversations about the history of Winding Creek Estates,

To Cheryl, David, and Doug: I was sorry to hear of your Fathers' passing. He was a large presence in your family, and in the South Haven community. His strong work ethic and values helped insure each of your successes. How lucky you are to have a Father like him! May you rest in peace, Don. Job well done!

I have been happy to call him "neighbor" for 35 years. Such a determined man and a pleasure to talk with. I'm so sorry for you Joyce, and your family. May you find peace and comfort in our Lord.
