Melody - Amber and I always enjoyed stopping to visit on the 4 wheeler with you and Don. He was the coolest guy who enjoyed every minute of life and saw the good in everything.  I can still hear his laugh and see his smile. We missed you both when you moved from Mt Vernon! So sorry for your loss.  Travis Wolfe

Donnie was my step-brother for a little over 50 years.  His father, Terry and my mother Alice started dating in the fall of 1972. Me and my sister Pam met Donnie, Linda, Janice, Tom and Jimmy shortly after. Me and Donnie through the years always had a great time together with lots of laughs and good times. We took turns for awhile playing Santa Claus for the kids at our parents home on Christmas Eves, always having great fun. A whole lot of weekend days spent at mom and Terry’s place for cookouts, drinking lots of beer out of Terry’s keg.  Donnie was such a good storyteller very funny with his version of events. He took me on tours at the Air National Guard Base a few times, he had a very interesting job. Thank you so much Donnie and your wife Melody for looking out for my mom after Terry went to heaven. You will be severely missed Donnie, but thank you for the great memories and just you being you.  We will see you again on the other side.  Your step-brother, KeithMuncie.  R.I.P.

Donnie, we all love you and miss you...I have deep sadness that you are not here but deep joy for having you in my family for over 50 years...

I worked with Don at GE/SABIC.  He was a great guy that I enjoyed being around.  He was also so upbeat and had a smile on his face.  I am saddened to hear of his passing, and express my condolences to his family and friends.  

What a wonderful spirit! He will be missed. Prayers for the entire family. 

Uncle Donnie was a great man. He was always full of stories and laughs. Everytime we got together it was nothing but laughter the whole night through. A smile that will be not be forgotten. 

Such a sweet guy with so many stories. We miss you Don! ❤️

Donald will be greatly missed by both Dawn and I!! You were one of those friends that we enjoyed laughing at and as well laughing with!! Your story’s will live on and we hope to talk about you and tell them as you would have!! Fly high our friend!! 

I only met Donnie a few times but I will remember him for his infectious smile and joyful laugh.  I will also remember him for how much he loved Melody,  you could see it in his eyes.  He was so much fun that we welcomed him on our girls group outings.  I'm glad his last days were spent in a place he loved with the person he loved more than anything.  We will help you get through this Melody.  Love you

Don was a great man. I worked with him for about 10yrs at Sabic.
He was a great friend and was very pleasant to be around.
