Not sure what to say?

Uncle Donnie, I know it has been 7 years since you have passed; I was only 13 years old. But God, I miss you so much. You were such a selfless, amazing man. I know we were never close, but I am so proud to call you my uncle. I think of you every day, and I hope you're having a great time up there in heaven. Rest in Peace Uncle Donnie, you will forever be missed.

Donald was my younger brother. Donnie and I were close, but not that close. We always celebrated holidays together and of course we talked from time to time between holiday events. Donnie cared for his wife Barbara and his animals. He always had a special love for all animals. His minature horses were his children. He had such a kind heart. As most of you know, Donnie was a very quiet person. He never liked to have anyone's attention focused on him. He was humble and kind. I don't think...

RIP Uncle Don. You were a great person that I always admired. You will be missed.

After reading some of the message left on this guest book, I know that Donnie was the man I thought he would grow to be. I only new him a short while in his teen years and thought then, what a wonderful person he was. Circumstances put our lives on different paths and I'm sorry to say I had not seen him in over 40 years. Donnie, you are free from the pain now, may you rest in peace. To the family, my thoughts and prayers are with you in this difficult time.

May God comfort you in your time of sorrow. May He guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus and grant you His peace.

I only met Don and his famly for a brief time. But in that short time I saw a very close and caring family. He was always joking around and made me feel welcome, even in all his pain. He is someone I won't forget. Don, you made a big difference in this world, just like you will in the next. I am glad I got to meet you and your family.

To the Krohn Family. I had the privilege and pleasure to work with Don in inventory control at Shamrock Foods. Don was one of the hardest workers that I have ever worked with. Any time a helping hand was needed, Don would deliver. When help was needed in other departments, Don was the one that stepped up to the plate and did an excellent job. Not only was Don a great coworker, he was a great person. He may be gone for now but I will remember him in my mind forever. My deepest sympathy to the...
