I have fond memories of Donnie at all the family reunions. Always the life of the party. Wishing all my cousins comfort and love at this sad time.

It is with sad yet, loving feelings that I am thinking about you, the Stavens family!
I loved spending time out East, in my early 20s , with you guys living in Ellington, Connecticut !
Not only when Rosalie & Don could make it to visit Ames, Iowa did I get to know what a joy you both were, to be around! Then years later, Mark & I (along with Matt and Lizzie Ditman) got to visit you in Scottsdale Arizona, and oh what a joy that was, too! Dar always had the greatest support of Don (and you , Rosalie); like the time she ventured away (far away) from home @18 years old! Thank God, she did and a double Thank God that she pledged Gamma Phi Beta at the same time I did!!
Don is going to be missed and I know that Rosalie, the event of your and Don´s celebrating yet another anniversary is
something to be proud of and no doubt,
#65th year anniversary will be very difficult this year!! Praying for you to treasure the best memories of your lives together (keeping them close to your heart, forever)
I love you and your family !
Hugs,
Di
