Notes |
- NOTE from Tonya Barthelemy: He always had a story to tell and it would never fail he could put a smile on your face whether it was a joke or story. He is in heaven telling his stories to all his family members and friends that has passed before him. Uncle Donnie and Aunt Sandy took me with them to Florida when I was 16 and that is just one of the kind things they have done. Uncle Donnie had the biggest heart and I know that I will keep him in mine.
Love and miss you Uncle Donnie.
