Donnie was my Direct Sales Manager with Alltel, while in Tri-Cities, TN. What a special man that cared deeply for his family and every person on our team. He spoke so fondly of his sons and entire family. We are greatly saddened for the loss of a great individual, who made everyone smile just by his presence and personality. All of you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Family,
Our hearts are extremely heavy with the loss of Donnie. I had the privilege of working with him while he was here in East TN. He spoiled me with Reese Cups and my family looked forward to his Christmas cards each year. Sam and Adam, your Dad loved you all so much. He was so proud of both of you and loved sharing the latest adventures. Please know you are certainly in our thoughts and prayers. Your Dad was one who certainly made a difference in the lives of all he met -...

Donnie was a wonderful man. He always had a story to tell and his goal was to always put a smile on someone elses face. He will be missed very much.

Sam and Adam,
I first met your father when you were just babies through my extended family, the Atkinsons. I am so sorry for your loss. I know how hard it is to accept such a sudden and tragic loss. I have you both, as well as your mom and all of the family in my thoughts and prayers. Hope that you can find comfort in your many memories of your father.

I was shocked and distressed to hear

My sincerest condolences to all of you.

Sam & Adam,
I am sorry to hear about the loss of your father. I wish I could have attended the service but was out of town. I understand some of the emotions you must be feeling as I lost my father last fall after nearly a two year battle with ALS. May your families find strength and comfort in the memories you will always cherish of your father. May God bless you at this difficult time.
