We were neighbors in South Padre Island. I remember many, many adventurous stories about his bead and Indian artifact collections. Don made me several bead cowboy hat bands and I´ll always treasure them. I know you´re in heaven Don, God Bless you and your family.

I knew Donny since the first grade at OLS and all the way through McHi. After that we lost touch as I left McAllen to attend college and then on to a 20 year Air Force career. I never got to see Donny at any of our reunions and often wondered where he went. I did know that he had an awesome Indian artifacts collection. Another loss of a great friend. I'll miss you Donny.

Donnie and I were Classmates at Our Lady of Sorrows School and lived near to each other. He was always extremely curious about coins, antiquities, and the physical elements of life. Although sporadic, we maintained contact in sharing our life adventures. I will miss Donny.
