Donald Lee Cates

Donald was a really sweet friend of my daughters (Angie) that loved to hang out with her and other friends at our house. He was also a really fun guy that enjoyed teasing me and his friends. He was always upbeat,positive and friendly. Just a good friend to anyone who knew him. We were all so sad to hear that he was gone.

Donald was my brother in law he was greatly loved and is truly missed

I know if you were here you would say, "Today is Flag Day, do you know what that means?"
Happy Birthday Donald Lee!!!!
Love,
Sherri Jo

You are missed more than words can express! It doesn't seem possible that a year has passed already. It seems like only days ago that we were talking and laughing about the past. Know you will always be loved by many and NEVER forgotten!

I cannot believe it has been a year already. I talk to Dad every week and he misses you so much. We all miss you but know one day we will all be together again.

Your Big Sis,

We made it through our first year without our sweet Donald Lee. Lots of tears and many sweet memories. It's still so hard to believe that we will never hear that wonderful laugh again or see that beautiful smile. You are living on through your children...they are more like you every day.

Donald will be deeply missed, I was lucky to have known him as a friend and former classmate! I remember once we where the only two people in the 7th grade hall at HMS when he was trying to rig the coke machine to give him 2 cokes at a time, the coke machine went crazy and spit out about 8 or 9 cans at one time , we both grabbed them and took off running! I will never forget the look on his face when it happened!lololol I will miss him! Stay strong Cates family!

You will Never be forgot.

To Donald Lee's Family.

Donald was loved by so many and he will forever be in each of our hearts. Donald will forever live on in each of us and how he touched our lives. The memories we each share of him will live on and His name will to as well. I just wanted you to know that he is not forgot and never will be and we are still thinking of you guys and holding you close in our prayer's.


Charles and Danny you know I am so here for you and you...

To Donald's family and friends,

I hope all of you can find peace in this time of sorrow. I just lost my brother and the pain is more than one should have to bare. Try to find comfort in the wonderful memories you have of Donald. He was a wonderful man and friend. Ask God for comfort and he will be there. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Leave the light on for us Donald...
