Jane and Louisa, I'm very sorry to hear of Donny's passing. It doesn't seem that long ago that he was just another kid in the neighborhood playing baseball, football, riding bikes, etc. It was a great place to grow up. He had alot of friends and those times will always be remembered fondly. With sincere condolences. Harry

I'll always remember that innocent boy quality that Donny possessed. When I was home visiting my Mom, he often joined me when I walked the dog. I pray that he is in peace now, smiling down on all of us.
