I am so sorry for your loss. You don't know me but I am a cousin to Donnie. My mother (Clara Stritenberger) and his father were brother and sister. I have lived in North Dakota for years and haven't seen some of my cousins for years. We had some good times together when we were kids. Love and Prayers are with you..Janice Leebrick
