Don was my first cousin. We have the same birth dates and celebrated our birthdays together as little boys. I didn’t see much of him as we got older, but I knew of him in his community, and he was a gentleman and a Christian. I know he is with his Lord today,and I look forward to seeing him again. God bless and protect his family.
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. God give you peace and comfort.

Sylvia, I am so sorry to read of the death of your sweet Don. He was such a nice, sweet Christian man. My daddy thought the world of both of you and David and I did too. May God wrap his loving arms around you and your family and may you always feel his presence with you. Don is no longer in pain and he has a whole new body now. We will all see him again soon. We love you and miss seeing you since we moved to Longview. Love you always, Linda and David Adams
Praying for all of your family.
RIP sweet angel. May God watch over the family during this time of sadness.
My heart and prayers go out to Don’s family. I am so sorry for your loss and pray for God’s peace and comfort in the time to come until we all see him again! God bless you.
So sorry to hear about Don’s passing. Just got the sad news but wanted to let you know our prayers are with you. May God’s love and comfort be with you all.
So sorry to hear this. God bless your family and give you peace and comfort.
I am sorry for your loss. Losing a loved one to death is very hard. The Scriptures are truly strengthening and I hope that you will find comfort in the promise at Psalms 34:18 that Almighty God ”is close to the brokenhearted”
