Sending thoughts and prayers from Missouri….Donnie was a great guy and was always so friendly when I visited Wheeling. Although his passing creates grief here in our physical realm, I can almost hear Kanette’s voice saying to him….”what the hell took you so long?” as he enters the Golden Gates!
My sincere sympathy to your family Don.We played ball together as kids.His dad Jim was our coach.Such fond memories!Rest in peace.
