Donnie to hear of your passing was truly a sad moment for me though we were friends for a short time I feel as though I known you my whole life. I know I will miss the days of you giving me a hard time and me calling you an old man. I will cherish the memories that I have of the four of us laughing together. You were a good man and a great friend. The world is a little less bright without you in it. Until we meet again your friend Maria
