I grew up with Donnie in Brandon and even though I lost touch with him as we both became adults I had many happy memories of playing baseball and football in the old neighborhood with him. I was just asked about him at a school reunion and it got me thinking about the great childhood times we shared. I was very saddened to hear about the untimely loss of one of my childhood friends. My deepest sympathies go out to his family and I'll be keeping them in my prayers.
