I have a lot of respect for you, even though we never had a chance to meet in person.

I know that you were a great man who loved his wife and children.

I am sorry for everything that you had to face during your time here on earth.

But now you can; go rest high on that mountain.

Rest in Peace Donald.
May God Bless you Mindy, Megan and Michael.

My Dearest DK,

I still can't believe that you have already been gone for over a month. I can not even begin to express in words just how much I miss you.

I opened up your belongings from the hospital the other day; stood up, turned around and looked for you.
Wow, your smell, I will never forget it, that was an amazing scent.

One thing I can promise you is that you will never, ever be forgotten!

I think about you everyday, I talk to you often...

Donald,

We had so many great memories. It has been almost 5 weeks since you have left us, I love and miss you everyday and I cannot wait til the day that we get to see each other again. I think I have made up my mind to go in the Coast Guard so I know you would be proud to hear that. Mom pounds it in my head every day that I better hurry up and call a recrutier so I guess I will do that soon, you would also be proud to know that I have all A's in my classes!! I will always love and...

Melinda,
I wish I had the right words that could take away your feelings of loss and ache in your heart. I do hope you, Michael ,and Megan...Scott and Ronald, find comfort in the years of good memories and know how much love Donald had for all of you.Donald is home with Brian and Stone and the ache in his heart is gone now. Melinda, Donald knew you were there,from beginning to end. You can both be at peace now. Donald, you may be gone...but never forgotten...always in thoughts and prayers.

Mindy, you are in my thoughts and prayers. You have endured some much. If you need someone different to talk to, you can call me.
