Condolences to the Family

I have fond memories of Donnie as our neighbor in Leola. He liked to have fun and joke around. I’ll always remember the incident with helping de-ice the freezer and the fire department being involved.  I’m so very sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in happy memories.

My condolences to his family. You were always such a fun brother in law. I don’t recall you ever being less than joyful. It has been awhile since we bumped into each other but I think of you often. Memories are from a much more care free time and all good ones! Rest in peace.
