My condolences to the family, Donnie was a very good dear friend of mine. We had many good memories! Sometimes they could be on the rough side but we always backed each other. One story that I must share, now remind you I didn´t know Don at All and him and a group of my husbands friends came to help move my husband from Truman Lake to Blue Springs MO, long story short ,,, Donnie walked in the house and the first thing this guy said was "I want her underwear drawl", I said OMG, who is this guy. Been friends ever since and had the honor to get to know the rest of his family and friends. RIP Don.
