It really breaks my heart 1st John and now Don. I bought my first motorcycle from one of you, I don't remember which one.  A yamaha 100 and I used it for my motorcycle route.  I posted this at John's passing but I still remember when I was 18 and all of us from Alamogordo born in 1953 with draft numbers less than 41 were sent on a bus for a pre-induction physical to Fort Bliss. I think there were about 20 of us.  Don and John, you both were so much fun on that trip.  The rest of us were quiet obedient kids and you 2 raised hell with the military guys.  I remember a ton of kids from all over were there and they were lining us up.  They separated the Price twins in two separate lines and I remember John and Don switching and just messing with their heads.  One of the doctors or military nurses asked the guys from Alamogordo  which Price was Don and which was John.  We all told them, hell they look alike to us we don't know.  We all went to Juarez and partied afterwords.  You two made a crappy thing fun and that is how I remember you. Two fun guys.

Dear The Price Family and the Alamogordo community

When Jon died I had great concern for Don.  I must say while shocked at the chances that they both would depart within one month of each other I think God has bigger plans for them. When I saw Don at the reunion it brought back memories of the crush I had on him.  Being new to the school and only living there one year I realized my presence was fruitless.  My heart goes out to their parents Betty and Jon, as a parent should never have to suffer  the loss of their children.  To the rest of the family I send you blessings and prayers that you will carry on and live your lives as Don and Jon would want you to. You must take care of your health in everyway you know how so you can live long healthy lives well past your sixties. By this I mean...eat organic, tons of vegetables, low alcohol intake, no smoking of any kind, excersize regularly, fight for clean air, and don't think that pharmaceuticals are the answer as most of them can cause desease, and include God in your life.  This is what Don and Jon would want for their family.  With the deepest sympathy for the family and the community I send you blessings.

I was so shocked and saddened to hear of Don passing so soon after John.  I did not know he was

ill as well. My heart goes out to his parents and siblings.. this is so sad, and must be the most

difficult thing to go through for his family.

I will always have fond memories of the twins from Heights Elementary through high school.

Two of the planet's  nicest people who will be greatly missed.

I remember always thinking how cool Don and his brother John were. I dug hearing their music. I always thought musicians were a "breed apart"! My condolences to the Price family. Don's notes will echo in the heavens where those two rockin brothers now reside....Play on guys...

I think the passing within months of each other coincides with being twins.  I was married to Don "Donnie" Fish and he passed away 6 months after Ron "Ronnie" Fish did.  I didn't know the boys very well, but Don spoke of them often.  My heart, thoughts, and prayers go out to the Price family.  May God Bless.
