Don is a long-time member of SJAA, discovered his first in 1978 from
Loma Prieta. His column "Comet Comments" ran in the SJAA Ephemeris for
many years, also in numerous other club's newsletters.
He presently lives near Colfax, in California's gold country. Don is
also expert on the Messier objects, being one of the first to see 'M all
in one night.
Congratulations, Don!
