To the family and kids sorry for your lost but you are not in this alone God will give everyone the strength to get through this pain all you have to do is have faith in him and he is always on time. DonE it feels unreal that you are gone. I keep questioning my self is this a dream am I going to wake up and you outside fixing the BMW what you loved to do. I guess it is not cause I am looking at you in the paper and all I can do is look over at Don and say he really not coming back and he looking at me saying Rhonda I am really going to miss DonE he looked up to me. Well you in a better place now no more pain no more worries. Take you rest and keep looking over your kids and family. You are gone but never never forgotten. God has an angel in heaven fixing on his wheels getting ready to go pick up the next angles. Take your rest.
