My heart goes out to you at this time. Your family is so close that Donnie's passing will surely leave a large hole. Fill that hole with the assurance that God gives us - that you will see him again one day. In the mean time, take one day at a time and remember the good times! You are in my thoughts and prayers!! Love, June
