I’m very saddened to hear about Donald passing. We were friends for the last 25 years. From fishing and hunting with him to his visits to our farm in Hardin.
Donald never met a stranger. His kind heart and helping attitude was evident of his love for people.
May God bless the family and provide comfort and peace. He is dearly missed and now resting in Gods love.
Alan, Holly and Travis Cummings.
