A Speedy Recovery…
This week Donn “Too Tall” Shanteau, husband of airbrush artist and instructor Pamela Shanteau, was involved in a motorcycle accident while riding his custom Harley, The Dragon Stomper.
Apparently, Donn was following a truck pulling a small boat on a trailer. The truck was stopping and the trailer had no tail lights or brake lights. Donn, in his attempt to avoid collision with the trailer, ended up flying of the road, and both he and bike went airborne. Donn was lifelined to the hospital. This happened a couple days ago and Donn is now in the hospital, in ICU, with a cracked skull, and no shortage of bruises. He also had some fluid or blood build up on his brain, but they have it under control. Thankfully, no other broken bones though, and in time Donn should heal. In the interim, Pamela apologizes to any students scheduled for her upcoming appearance at the forthcoming ASET Air Affair East this May 30th-31st at Williams, PA, as she’ll be keeping Donn humble for a while. Knowing Donn, he’ll be riding before we all know he was down.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Donn for a speedy recovery, and for Pam’s strength through the healing process.
Stay tuned to AirbrushTour for updates.

[…] I just got off the phone with Donn Shanteau. Regular AirbrushTour readers know of Donn’s recent accident. I actually called to get an update from Pam and was pleasantly surprised to hear Donn answer the phone. Sounding coherent, Donn assured us that he’s feeling much better - still sore - but better. He asked us to express that he is humbled and grateful for all support, including cards and flowers, that he has received from the airbrush community. Anyone who knows Donn, knows he is one tough guy. Despite his recent incident, he’s already looking forward to fixing the Dragon Stomper and logging some miles. Stay tuned. We’ll keep you informed.
