Donnie had the best smile, I can still hear his laugh. LuAnn, I'm so sorry you're entering 2018 without him. He was lucky to have had you in his life. I wish you health, peace and love this year.

So sad to have Donnie gone. I will always remember our childhood adventures. He struggled so much during his adult life but still maintained a zest for life. He had undying love for Lu, family, and friends. He will be missed. Hugs and kisses to you Lu, and family. Wish I could be there for the memorial but will be there in spirit.

My heart is heavy as I find out about Donnie's passing. Mr. Mckernan (I never could call him Donnie) was a staple at Lakeside Jr. He was an amazing man and loving teacher. He had a unique laugh that could light up a room. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Sorry for your loss, sickness and death is an enemy of God, he promises to do away with sickness and death one day soon. Revelation 21: 3,4. The God of the Bible is a loving God who can provide comfort for the mourning ones, those lowly in heart and provide encouragement and strength. 2 Corinthians. 1: 3,4.
May comfort and peace be with the family and friends.
