Donald Harris, well-known to the Brunswick Parkinson’s community for his quick wit and kindness, has died at age 81 after a brief acute illness. Over the several years I knew Donald he always impressed me with his integrity, his sense of humor, and his ability to reduce complex discussions into clear choices; though often finishing a thought with an instruction to for me to “think about it.” Usually the “it” would wind up being something unexpected and funny. He could also be quite serious and thoughtful. Donald had a keen mind and a good heart. He will be missed by many.
