My sincere condolences to the entire Tidwell Family! May all the beautiful blessings each of us received during Donald's lifespan both professionally and personally be remembered and cherished. We have been truly blessed to have known such a man, he touched so many people in different ways through his good nature, wit, charm, character and common sense. I pray his accomplishments in and around Columbus will be remembered, because I will be one of those who will remember. I am truly thankful and blessed he touched my life, when I lived there. Donald will be one of those Great Angels watching over his loved ones and making sure they do right. May God continue to bless each of you this day and every day! Be thankful for his namesake!
