I will always remember you as a boss and a friend you always had a hart when I needed help but you were also tuff. You will be missed.

Donnie,

you will be missed!!! I remember when I first met you at work BOY was it interesting, we would always bump heads but once we worked together more often it was GREAT. you taught me a lot here in the cable industry (in construction) I thank you for that because I use it on a daily!!! you were funny, kind and always helping even though you would talk mess LOL, all I would say whelp there goes Donnie talking back lol... oh, how I'm going to miss the conversations with you especially about Bowling 🎳... Donnie, may you rest in heaven with no more suffering no more pain!!! 

To the Family thank you for sharing Donnie with us I pray for strength and comfort during this difficult time!

So many stories I could tell, but if it happens with Donnie and Cliff it stays with Donnie & Cliff. Seriously, Donnie's family was always there for me from the first day we met when he came to my home to do my installation of cable tv through all the years of doing installs to all the construction work processed through the system we worked for. All the years to the phone call telling me he was moving to Arkansas and I was living in Kansas, the question how far was it to his new home from mine, A week before he passed I got to see him for the last time and I was glad I made the trip. I'm glad your finally at peace w/o the pain that you have been suffering with for years. RIP my brother until we meet again we all pray that your family will find a way to survive without your presence, but we all will be there for them if they need anything.

Don, you are missed by so many that loved you.  I have only known you for a few short years, but you were one of the kindest, funniest people I have known.  Always there to lend a helping a hand to anyone that needed it.  You fought so hard, but your battle is over now, resting in the arms of your Savior.  No more pain, no more cancer, you are now a new person that will keep your eye on us bowlers here below.
Annette, I think of you both when I wrap myself in the beautiful, warm blanket that you made for me.
May God be with you and your family and give you peace and comfort.
