Not sure what to say?

Tom and the rest of the Donnell family, my condolences during this time of grief. We had some really great times when our fathers were on the city commission. You're father was a good man. Love the memories in your heart.

Dear Cindy, and Marty, and other Donnell family members:
Please my deepest condolences at this time about the loss of your father. He was great man for what did for family, and the City Wichita. I can remember him darting around town in his Volvo station wagon. I wish he had more time to talk to Vern Miller, across the back fence. I wish you all God's comfort at this time. Mark Dodds

I am so very sorry to learn of Dr. Donnell's passing. He was my family doctor all my growing up years, after his dad had passed away. He was my family doctor once I was grown and married and children of my own. He was a very dear and passionate and caring person. One treasure of a doctor. My deepest sympathy to his entire family.

Dr. Donnell was our family doctor for many years. He was kind,compassionate and caring - traits I personally have not found in another physician since then. He will truly be missed. One of my sisters gave her son his last name as her son's middle name! May Dr. Donnell's family find peace and solace in their memories of him. RIP, Dr. Donnell.

So sorry to hear of Dr. Donnell's death. My family were patients of both Dr. Jim and his father when I was growing up. He was also very helpful to a situation which arose when I was in high school and he was on the School Board. Prayers for all of his family.

Tom and family, Sorry for your loss. I remember your father fondly.

It is sad to hear of Dr. Donnell's death. He did so much for so many patients, young family physicians, family medicine education, the city of Wichita and the state of Kansas. My condolences to the family.

A deep pleasure to care for him during his journey to a better place...My condolences, from my family to yours.
