He is survived by his parents Pam and Jim Myrick, Ed and Sheila Drewry, sister Sandy, her husband Scott Brown along with his nieces Brooklynn Willeford, Alyssa and Aubrey Brown and nephew Taylor Williford, stepsister Aimee Hogan and stepbrother Brian Hogan. Donnie was also very close to all of his cousins who thought of him as a brother and his Aunts and Uncles who loved him so very much. We are all the better for knowing him and will miss him beyond measure. Services will be held at Hillcrest Mortuary on October 5th at 11:00 AM.
