To a true good friend of mine and my ex brother in-law. Donnie you will always be in my heart! A lot of good times we had! R.I.P. my friend.I'm so sorry your gone too soon.

A real gentleman with a welcoming presence. My group often remarked about what a pleasure it was to play at Chippewa compared to elsewhere because of the people who worked there. Donny embodied that difference. A fine player and teacher of the game, his most lasting legacy has nothing to do with a golf club.

Mr. Olney and Jeff, I am very saddened to have heard about Don. I spent many hours on the golf course with him during our summer jobs at Rawiga; he taught me how to golf. We also became great friends. He had a heart of gold. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Don has been an awesome friend to my family and myself for many years. My Wife, Sons and I will miss him very much. His memories will live in my heart forever. Save me a spot in heaven my brother!!!

My Ohio golf season has started on Good Friday at the Chipp for the past 25 years. Don was always the man that welcomed our group. Heaven just got themselves on of the true fine gentleman... just way to early.
RIP Good Friend

I have known Donnie since childhood. Always enjoyed seeing him at Chippewa. I will always remember his smile & wry sense of humor. My prayers go out to Mr. Olney & Jeff & everyone else. In honor of Donnie, going to play Rawiga tonight in lieu of his memorial.

Donny was a classmate at the old Lincoln School. Always friendly and smiling.
