Donnie and Mike,
It just doesn't seem really that Uncle Page is gone. I'm sorry for you both. You are in my prayers and thoughts.

Dear Donnie & Michael,

This is Donna (Browder) Leake. My mom Margaret was with Dick for several years.

We sure are sorry to hear you lost him so soon. I had heard from Wino that he had been having pretty bad health issues for several years now. I did not know he had died until the day of his funeral. I would have been there in a heartbeat.

I hope you boys are doing okay. If you need a shoulder please call me. 804-400-1664

I look forward to seeing you both again, although, Michael, I don't know if I would recognize you! Do you still look just like your Pop? Call me sometime, Donnie. We always were close. I'd love to talk to you again.

Hope all the children are healthy and happy.

Donna Kay
