Donnie was born and raised in Springfield, KY. Donnie was blessed to have made many great friends during a long sales career and never met a stranger.

Osbourne (Judi), Nancy Tatum (Larry), Sarah Mitchener (Dillon), Imelda Woodruff (Woody), Damion Osbourne (Judy), Bob Osbourne (Phyllis), Sally Milburn (Roger).
The family would like to send a special thanks to the doctors, nurses and staff of Springview Hospital in Lebanon, KY and Jewish Hospital in Louisville.

To the Osbourne Family,
I met Donnie 18 years ago and considered him one of my true friends in the industry. He always had time to talk and often went out of his way for us. He never forgot a face and often asked about my Dad during his illness. Your family is in my heart and prayers.
Sincerely,

Dear Barbara,
I am so sorry to hear of Donnie's passing. It is truly a great loss for all. My sincere sympathy goes out to you and the family. I honestly know the sadness you are feeling at this time. I just lost my mother, after a short 8 week illness, on December 26,2010. Even with the best of words, I cannot express the deep compassion I have for you and the family. I truly hope you have peace and comfort.
Sincerely,
