Our prayers and blessings go out to Dawn and all the family for your and our loss. I remember Donnie and all the guys at my parents house most of the time hanging out with my two brothers, "Fats and Skinny". Your pain is now gone Donnie and your glory has begun. God has you close, you'll be looking down and laughing at all of us still here. God bless you my friend you'll be greatly missed. You'll be riding among the clouds now safe and sound with no pain. Until we all meet again my friend. Prayers and Blessings to you all.
