Torona,
I send my love, and prayers to you and your family. I know that God will comfort you during this time.
Don will be greatly missed. I just remember all the good times we had during the Community Choir Years. I thank God for giving him that vision a long time ago. I remember every time he would see me he would say are you behaving? Imma have to say special prayers for you! I remember our drive to Goldsboro, when Tony and I first got married. You and Don were there for us. I Love You my friend.
May God continue to bless you and your family.
