He was the best father! He named me the day I was born. There are so many good memories. I love you and going to miss you . Love you forever and a day
It is with deep sadness to lose such a fun and caring Uncle. He would get so excited about visits and always made us feel so welcome. I have great memories of hunting with my uncle and trekking through WV mountains with him. Man did he love venison. God speed Uncle Don and please hug Kenny for us. With love Ralph
Brother, hearing of your recent baptism, just overjoyed my heart and the overwhelming excitement you had. It spilled over to those around you. Get up and walk now brother cause you can, being with your heavenly father and your brother Mike that passed days prior and with loved ones there to greet you. Truly enjoyed our times spent together. To mine and Larry’s sadness we will not be able to give our last respect due to sudden illness but we will see each other again, cause you will greet me, as you were. I still can hear, “there’s my little sister”! Heavy is my heart!
Peace and comfort to the family
To the Family of “neighbor Donnie”, as our grandson has called him for several years. The man who held our granddaughter for the first time and the smile we captured.
We will miss seeing his little red car drive up and down the road and watching him work daily on his farm.
What a sad loss for our close neighborhood.
He will never be replaced. ❤️
Prayerfully, we will have a beautiful reunion someday in heaven brother.
Gone too soon but our Savior knew when it was time to call you home.
Pastor David Shelton and family.
