Donnie, you will always be my brother. We had so many laughs & talks. You were always a straight shooter (so to speak) & kept it real. (Especially when it came to me &Timmy). You will always have a special place in my heart. I know you and Timmy are up there watching down on us. Until we meet again big bro, i will always love & miss you very much.
