I am very saddened to hear of the passing of Donald. I have been wanting to reach out to him for many years now, and never had the courage. Now it is to late, and I have learned one of the biggest life lessons about regret. Donald was married to my grandmother back in the 80’s in Dallas. He was our grandfather growing up. (My sister and I). We loved him dearly. I googled him many times over the years, and learned of him relocating to Florida and getting remarried. I always wondered if he ever thought of us or even remembered us. I was scared to reach out, because I didn’t want to burden him and the new life he had made. It was heartbreaking for my sister and I to lose him as children. We lost a grandfather and couldn’t understand why. I wish I could have told him how much he was loved and missed all these years. I wish I could have told him how special he was, and how admired he was. I guess that’s why I’m writing on here today. It is July 4th. We always think of you on this day and all you did for our country. I googled you again yesterday and found out about your passing. I was extremely saddened, but I know you are up there in heaven looking down on all your loved ones. I hope you didn’t forget about michelle and I, because we never forgot about you. May you Rest In Peace “Don Don.” We love you so much, and we will always cherish the memories we shared with you. My condolences to all his family and friends. ❤️
