Yesterday

Dear Debbie and family,

I am so very sorry for your loss and my heart breaks for all of you! James (AKA to me - Don Johnson) was an amazing man! As your close friend Debbie, your dad welcomed me into his life and treated me with such love and kindness, that I will forever be touched. I'll never forget how you both drove all the way to Buffalo, during a December storm to attend my own father's wake, and made such an impact on me at that moment when I saw you both enter. I could never put into words how much it meant to me to have you both there to love and support me! It was then that I shared with him that he reminded me of "Don Johnson" with his full head of beautiful silver hair. At that moment it became our personal joke and one that brings a huge smile to my face everytime I think of it. Thank you "Don" for bringing me such joy. My prayers and love are with you all!
