You have seen God, are with Him, and enjoying life as never before. All your doubts, troubles, and stresses of your earthly life are made clear now - the why's have been answered. We, who are left without presence, are the ones who bear the sorrow. But we know, one day, we will see you again - and for all eternity. That's a long time so we better behave better there than here!! I miss and love you big brother. Suzanne

One year you have been with God in his glorious kingdom, with all the family and friends that have gone before you. I am sure Don and Gregg were there to welcome you home. Life on earth is a struggle that we must pass through to get to the 'other side' which is beyond human imagination. "No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived, what God has prepared for those who love him" (1 Col 2:9) I miss you and love you big brother - Suzanne

Donnie, I will remember you as a real trooper who never gave up! " I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day (2 Tim 4:7). Miss and love you big brother. See you again one day!
