Have worked with Don since 1984 and have treasured his incredible knowledge and insights to the historical aspects of quality, management and people but also the clarity of selecting the right 'tool' for the right job. He showed me a 16mm film called "Right First Time" when I visited his office in Red Bluff. I still use it today as I brought it to Australia and people are embarrassed that the concepts shown and as Don and I discussed, are still pertinent today and I suspect always will be. Hi Quality Circles and TQ Manuals, Texts, Video's change much of quality training here in Australia and Asia where we work. His Practical Statistical Process/Quality Control books were outstanding and easy to understand, by all people at whatever level. Congratulations on his award and trust his convalescing in Arizona is enjoyable, Michael W McLean
