Our hearts go out to you, Charlotte, and to all of Donnie's loved ones, for comfort and peace at this time of loss of his physical presence. Our prayers will be for you all to receive strength from sharing with each other the happier memories of your good times with him while he was in your lives.

All of Donnie's good works will precede him and because of his long and enduring struggle, he is now, most surely, standing in the warm, healing and comforting Light and Peace before and in the presence of our Loving and Great Lord.

May Donnie Lewis Brady and the souls of all the faithfully departed, through the mercy of God, REST IN PEACE.
