With the Mariner season coming up I can't help but think of my nephew, Donny. He was one of the biggest Mariner and Seahawk fans around. I wish I had a photo of him in Mariner clothes... I am sure he had them! Miss and love you Donny.... every day.... always!

To our Donny....

Donny,

Our eyes filled up with tears

as we heard the news
It never even occurred to us

How much we could ever lose.

We find ourselves wishing

that it wasn't real.
Every time we think about it,

pain is all we feel.

Tears fall from our eyes

Sometimes we can barely see
But our hearts keep telling us

"you'll always be with me".

Why did you leave us?

Didn't you know we cared?

Didn't you know we loved you?

That we always would be there?

A thousand times we've thought of you
A thousand tears we cried
If love alone could save you
you never would have died

Uncontrollable tears

now stream down my face

While looking at your picture

I feel an empty space

Didn't you know you were a part of us

As we were a part of you

When you chose to go away

You took us with you too

They say time heals all wounds

But we'll always have this space

A big hole in our family

With your name upon its place.

We think of you with love today,
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday.
And the day before that too.

We think of you in silence.
And we often speak your name.
But now all we have are memories.
And your picture in a frame.

Your memory is our keepsake.
With which we’ll never part.
God has you in his keeping.
And we have you in our heart.

You are in a better place now,
All your problems have gone away,
We must remember you'll be waiting
For us some sweet and glorious day!!!!!!!

We love you and miss you Donnie!!!!

Written by your Aunt Joyce

Oh Joyce, I'm soooooooo very sorry about your loss!! As you know I do understand that pain of suicide. I will keep you in my prayers and add you to a prayer chain here.

Only the lord will be able to take your pain away as we both know but doesn't make it any easier to handle.
