I am so sorry for your loss. Donnie was an amazing man. Growing up he always treated me like one of his own. If her caught me doing something I shouldnt be he would call me out on it. Every time we would run into each other he would always give me the biggest hug and tell me hes proud of me and he loved me. I am keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers.
