I will always remember my best friend “Donnie “ ….Sticks..which was the nickname we gave him when our band the “Esquires “ was formed back in the sixties as young high school boys playing Beatle songs at dances around our neighborhood and with the “Battle of the bands” in Cincinnati , Ohio on one of the radio stations..Donnie was a great dummer…and always had a problem holding on too those sticks while playing….LOL ! You will always be in my heart ❤️ and many prayers 🙏🙏 for Sue and the girls…we love you and will never forget !

What a pleasure and honor it was to know Don and play music with him for so many years. His beat laid down the tempo and kept us together through thousands of tunes over the course of our time playing with SOS! No complaints, always agreeable, Don was as happy behind his drum kit as he was on his Harley. Thank you Sue for sharing him with us! We loved Don and will miss him. Rest in peace my friend.
