Donald was an amazing person! I truly enjoyed taking care of him everyday and hearing his jokes, laughter, nd singing going down the hallways and asking about my daughter. He was so happy to hear about my pregnancy and then meeting my daughter and always asked when he could hold her. He will be dearly missed
