Not sure what to say?

Still missing you, Donny. I think about you all the time. You would've loved your funeral! All the love & thoughtfulness of your family, & just tons of all your best friends! You'd have been So-o pleased with the turnout. Can't wait to see you again someday, my dear friend.

Love you Donny! Fly high my brother.

I will miss laughing with him. His comebacks were legendary. A steadfast man. He took a part of me with him.

You were an amazing fun filled person I was blessed to know. Love you and prayers to your family and friends in these hard times, Rest in Peace my friend

Donnie was a broad man in his knowledge of basically everything that was presented to him each day and would help his friends and his friends friends if needed.
I met his good friend Linda through him and along came our lovely daughter, Alee.
I learned so much from him and will miss him so much but memories and friends help us all through these things, right?
My families thoughts and prayers go out to Gene, Chris and their families.

Donny was a very caring, generous friend & I was privileged to spend his last week with him. I know he had so many friends who wanted to be there for him. I'd like to make a special mention of Cliff, who helped him through appointments, meds & a mountain of paperwork. "Pickle" researched doctors for him.
Donny was proud of his family & heritage.
He loved his brothers & bragged on nieces & nephews. My heart goes out to them & Michelle.
We're all going to miss him so much.

My deepest sympathies to Don's family in his passing. I remember him as being such a great athlete in high school and a very popular guy.

Donnie was a true friend! He never asked for anything but was always there to help!
He was a entertainer! Loved having people over setting round watching movies and telling stories about his adventures on the road and in life! From running with no windshield in the desert "HOTTEST DAY" to pulling in a place up north "COLDEST" day ever and seeing jack rabbits all lined up against the building to stay warm.
I am blessed to of been able to spend every day with him for the last 4 1/2...
