To the family of Donald B.
Satisky, I was so very lucky to have had the great fortune to work with Donald at Blackwell's. He helped me learn the business and for that I will always be grateful. He was one of the many unique characters who made Blackwell's such a wonderful company to work for and to do business with. Donald leaves a lasting legacy in the academic bookselling business. He also leaves an edible mark on all who worked with him. He was a true Blackwellian in every sense. May he rest in peace along with all the other Blackwellians who have gone before him. ~ Steve Sutton, Stonington, Connecticutt November 27, 2015
Our Thoughts and prayers are with Ken, Norman and Eddie and the
