Sorry to hear about Donavan.
He and I with several other friends would get
together in the early 90’s and my house and support each other through life’s ups and downs.
Be free my friend. You now know the meaning to all of life’s questions.
Love peace and joy to all that knew Donavan.
Our hearts and prayers are with the family during this hard time..we love you guys.. Wish we could be there today.
As I’ve been thinking of my Uncle Don the word that keeps coming to mind is love. Late night in May of 1984 my Uncle Don was the first person to cradle me close to his loving heart at my birth.
I felt especially loved to be the flower girl at his wedding with Ramona.
Moments before he walked me down the aisle at my own wedding to give me away he showed a fatherly love by telling me how much he loved me and what a beautiful bride I was.
Throughout my life he would always greet me with a welcoming hug.
I pray with Jesus’s love, mercy, and sacrifice when I take my last breath my Uncle Don will be there to greet me with his welcoming hug like he did when I came into the world.
1st Corinthians 13:13
Three things will last forever faith hope and love and the greatest of these is love.
I just heard the news and I was shocked because just the other day he was posting on Facebook how much he loved golfing and that he was glad we had reconnected. I adored this man, he made a huge impact on my heart and I will miss him greatly.
Devon and Jordan there was no man who loved his sons as he did the two of you.
