My condolences to all the Donahue family. I moved away from N.O. early after WWII, but I still remember Betty Ann as a pretty child, and her brother P.J. as a talented artist...I regret not seeing them since...

Mr. Donahue:
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your wife. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. (I used to work for Ed Gordon in the little law office on N. Causeway).
