Had not been for Facebook I would not have known that you have parted this life. We met at Pemdroke Hall School, I later went on to KC and you to KTHS. I vividly remember the Girls Scout outing we attended at Gunboat Beach and the fun we had at the beach. I express my heart felt condolence to your family. I would like to get in contact with Oneil(Collie)Comrie, please contact me via my email address.

To my dear Uncle. I will never forget your smile, your laugh and the way you made everyone around you feel at ease. I feel so blessed and happy that you were at my wedding which was one of the last memories that we shared.  You are gone but will never be forgotten.

Your loving Niece,
Kelly

Saying goodbye is never easy, 
It's the hardest thing to do. 
But what hurts me even more 
Is not the chance to say it to you.

So today, Jesus, as you are listening 
in your home above; 
Would you go and find my uncle, 
And give him all my love!

My uncle, my brother.... Although we never spent a lot of time together. I always knew you were close and just a phone call away. Thank you for passing the love on to my children. Sydney will always cherish the time you catered her 15 th bd party. 
Although you are no longer a phone call away, I still feel your presence in my heart and around us all!! You will always live on in all of us and we will never let you die!!! 
Love you always
Suzy beanie

When i first heard that he passed I smiled. Gigi and the boys thought that was strange, but I pictured my uncle how he always smiled whenever we met. True genuine love. I remember Donahue the way he lived and wow did he live! Over the years, he taught me a lot and one of my fondest memories included learning how (not) to drive a stick shift while helping him ot to drive a stick shift. He lived and taught by example and he showed us all how to love and live life with infinite passion. No more words just great memories and a final picture in my mind of him smiling at everyone and me especially - the male version of Mummy (that's what it was). I am smiling right back at you Uncle even now.

TO FAMILY OF DONNAHUE TAKE COMFORT IN ALL THE MEMORIES THAT YOU HAVE CREATED AND REMEMBER THE WORDS OF THE LORD "WEEPING MAY ENDURE FOR A NIGHT BUT JOY COMES IN THE MORNING" May his soul rest in peace Yvonne Rigabie (Queens, NY)

My sincere condolences to the Comrie family and may God Bless and guide you through these sad times.
I have not see or spoken to Donnahue since KTHS days but I will always remember his 'cute' face and lovely smile.  Have faith in the fact that he has left behind a loving family as I could see from the photos and his legacy will live on.
One Love

To the Comrie family:
The life that he led
The laughter that he shared
And the love that he gave
Are the eternal memories that you have to keep.
Be comforted in that legacy today, and in years to come.

My condolences to Donnahue's family and friends, to those who spend those mmorable years with him in school, especially at KTHS, where I happen to know him.

To know you is to love you. 

I remember those days when Davidson Ave was our playground, the cracks of the sidewalks after those delicious 'boats' (lol), but most of all the stories .. followed by the scoldings/advises you gave me, which still live with me.    
  
Gone but not forgotten.   RIP

Memories Don't leave Like People Do, They All Ways Stay With You.Remembering The Days We Would Race Board Horse Down Davidson Ave After It Rain. RIP Donnahue.To The Entire Comrie Family From The Johnson Family Our Sincere Condolences.

There was never a dull moment around you, all the cousins wanted to hang with Uncle Donahue. I will miss my cds from you and my kids will miss your juice and your soup.  Whenever someone crossed over you were there to comfort me, now you are gone. You loved your family so much and always wanted to be their protector no matter what.. You have worked hard so just rest now and sleep in peace my dear cuz... Gone but not forgotten

There are gifts of many treasures
For both the young and old,
From the tiniest little trinkets
To great boxes filled with gold.

But, put them all together
And they could not stand in lieu,
Of the greatest gift of all
The gift of knowing you.

Lance M

Rest in Peace Donahue, and condolences  to all of the family.
