Looking for update or whereabouts on “Big” Don Biefer

I used to do some DJ work for him back in the early 2000’s but have lost touch.    Don was at FM108 at one point and used to organize lunches at Mandarin.   They were so fun and a great way to see friends in the radio biz.  I thought I heard he had moved to a LTC home but I don’t have any further info.   I’d love to call him and say hi.    Feel free to drop me an email (djwildbill@rogers.com) if anyone has contact info they don’t want to post here.    Thx.

Wild Bill, our mutual friend Charlie Ritenburg is in contact with Don's sister Susan Fennell as Don is in a hospise, and apparently on oxygen full time.  In fact Charlie and Susan were moving some of Don's personal effects from his house to a shed in the back yard just yesterday.

That's a very sad story.  I knew Biefer from his Oshawa days.

Worked with Don for many years, spoke to him briefly this morning (He had a visitor).  Seems to be in good spirits.
