To me Don Young was not just a boss and mentor in my early career days. He was always a friend available for a good chat. Happy to find this Guestbook that I didn't have the opportunity to sign in 2015. Rodrigo

While I was employed at McCain Foods in Portage La Prairie, Manitoba, Don helped me tremendously. Don was an excellent mentor and a fantastic person to work with. He had a lot of passion for what he did; and did everything he could to help me.

Dear Donna and family,
I was so sorry to hear of Dons passing. I have so many memories of working with him, boating with him and the family, and enjoying many long conversations while traveling up to the Woodstock Experimental Farm with the whole potato breeding group. More importantly, I want to thank him and you for being there for Charlie when Muriel passed away. With deepest sympathy for your loss - Susan and Al

I met both Dr and Mrs Young while I worked for Scotiabank in Lincoln. Dr. Young was always a pleasant man and I always remember him as the potato developer. So sorry for the families loss but I am sure you have many great memories.

I want to express my appreciation to Don Young for his help with my career in potato breeding, both for interviewing me for a position with McCain Foods and for subsequent guidance after being hired. His most valued advice however, was for woodworking. I had a nice chat with him at the farewell luncheon when I was leaving McCain and received some helpful e-mails subsequently. As a struggling beginner working with wood, it was great to have the advice of experience!
