Fred & Pat Gust says:
Donny was a great guy in the early 70’s he and I hung around a lot with all our friends together especially at Pine View on Beach Road. So sorry that we had not seen each other in a long time, we had talked about going to see him, wish we had. May he rest in peace, and our prayers are with the family.
Trish Smith says:
Donny was my favorite bud when we worked at Meridian. He would always help me out anytime whether it be delivering his secret compost, AKA (raccoon poop), gardening tips, garden fresh tomatoes and potatoes or giving my husband motorcycle and car advice. He had the best sense of humor and always made me laugh. When we stopped in at his house he always made us feel so welcome and would make a batch of fresh potato french fries in his cooker. I have lots of good memories of Donny and they all make me smile. Rest in Peace Donny.
