Zub and Trish, I wanted to let you both know how sad I am to hear about the death of your father. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this most difficult time.

I just wanted to send my condolences to the family of Mr. Mcdonald. I was a neighbor to his family from 1980-93 till i moved out, my family remains a neighbor. I always enjoyed visiting with the Mcdonalds, you guys are awesome people. As a child I remember always going over to the Mcdonalds house and saying hello and they would give me alittle candy, It meant alot to have someone to talk to as a kid. I would always see Mr. Mcdonald walking the dogs, he enjoyed that. He will be missed dearly. He was a a awesome dear neighbor and friend. thanks... Martin
