We have now lost the youngest of a generation of siblings. Difficult knowing a whole generation is now gone. So many emotions as we grieve, yet, we know the eternal peace Uncle Donnie now has. No more suffering and united with so many others that left before him. I hope you're all having a great game of 500 up there, as Michelle sings, and we one day meet you all again. Love you and you will be deeply missed!
