Don was truly an icon in Auburndale. Many people can say they bought or sold their houses from Don or his father Al. Don had a great personality and a wonderful sense of humor. He will be missed by all who knew him. We are reminded when Don left us he took the love we had for him with him. The love he had for his family and friends lives on forever in our hearts and memories. Now as he opens heavens door he is welcomed by those who went on before. His pain and suffering is over and done and he hears a voice say " Well done my son". His former life is over and done and his race on earth has been won. Don you will be missed but will always live on thru your friends and family.
Don was always an encouragement to me and my family. His contagious smile and humble spirit will always be an inspiration. He loved Jesus and loved others. Psalm 116:15 "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints". Sincerely, Ron Riggs. Lakeland, Florida
Gloria and Family,
I was saddened to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you. We were privileged to share many business adventures and personal times with Don over the years. He and my husband are both enjoying their heavenly home together as John passed on June 30. May you and the family know God's peace and comfort now and in the days ahead. Love to you and the family.

So sorry to hear the passing of Don .Growing up in Auburndale everyone knew the Cheek family since they were involved in the real estate business. In school he was always so funny and love to have fun. If you ever met Don you would never forget his smile and his full of life attitude. My thoughts and prayers go out to Gloria , children and grandchildren. Blessings, RIP Don...
