My sincere sympathy for the great, untimely loss of a dear man! Fr. Donn was the asst pastor at St Francis church in Muskegon when my family first met him. He became a spiritual mentor to me at a very difficult time in my life. He married 2 of my children & baptized 4 of my grandchildren! His homilies always touched me as he related to everyday life & its ups & downs.
He will be dearly missed.

To all members of the Tufts Family, we offer our condolences on Father Donn's passing. He truly was a people person. He filled in for the priests at Our Lady of Fatima on occasion, and we always enjoyed having him there. Fr, Donn baptized one or two of our grandchildren while serving at IHM in Grand Rapids. Cherish the memories you have made with him. You're in our thoughts and prayers. Mike and Judie MGovern
