My prayers go out to the family. Don put down some tile for me a few years ago, and we would run into each other every now and then. He was a good fellow, and always pleasant to be around. I am extremely sorry for your loss.

Dearest Sandy,
You and I both know that there are no words to offer that will take away the pain of losing a soul mate. I'm so thankful that the two of you made wonderful memories together that you can visit to get you through this. Also, know that we are always here for you. I still think of Donnie everytime I look at the front of our house or sit in front of the fireplace. He was the best. We loved him and we love you. If you ever need us for anything, please call. I mean that sincerely.
May God's blessings of peace and comfort surround you and may you draw strength from Him. He is hurting, too. Donnie is safe!
Love to you and yours,

Dearest Sandy & Family,
Even though there are many miles between us, please know that all of you are in my prayers and thoughts. Donnie was a "special" cousin, a sweet man who will be missed by many; especially by my Sister, Wanda. Please remember always that memory is a Gift from God that death cannot destroy and all of us will hold Donnie in our hearts and memory until we join him.
With Deepest, Heartfelt Sympathy

Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. We all had the privilege of working with Don, when he worked for us as a CASD sub custodian. He was a person we could rely when we needed someone in a pinch. He will be greatly missed.

I was very sorry to hear of the passing of your husband Donnie. I was a class mate of his and we enjoyed his music very much. I don't think I ever met you but just wanted you to know many people care and I know this is a verry difficult time for you and your family.
May God bless you.

I'm so sorry to hear about Don. Know in your hearts that he is at rest now. He's probably up there being the DJ for Dad and the rest of the angles. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Love Pam
