I LOVE YOU DAD I love you Dad with all my heart And hate that we should be apart Our love is a bond that can't be broken You may be gone, but never forgotten I remember the day you went away The pain in my heart is every beat But I know that eventually, one day We will, once again meet The loss is something I can't describe I'm really going to miss you One day I'll be back by your side So I can hug and kiss you There are no words to tell you. Just what Tm feeling inside The shock, the hurt, the anger One day, will gradually subside Things will never again be the same And though I'm hurting quite bad I will smile whenever I hear your name And be so proud to remember my Dad Sleep well Dad, forever in our hearts and our thoughts We will always love you dad.

During his childhood Donald was a member of St. John Baptist Church in Claxton, GA until he moved to Mt. Vernon, NY where he attended Grace Baptist Church. His affirmed faith and trust in the Lord remained strong throughout his life. He will always be remembered as a dedicated father, loving OBITUARY brother, and loyal friend. Don cherished the time he spent with his family and was extremely close to his siblings. Although he lived in New York, he frequently visited his family and friends and looked forward to spending time with the fellas in Myrtle BeachMarvin, Donnie, James Earl, and Carl. He held a special place in his heart for his children and raised them to be strong, intelligent, and loving people. He relished hearing about the accomplishments of his children and grand- children and was so very proud of them all. Donald was an avid sports fan who enjoyed spending time with his family watching his New York Giants and routing for Rus- sell Westbrook and LeBron James dominate the basketball court. He was an expert bowler who participated in bowling leagues and continued that passion until recently. He was a music afi- cionado who often spent time listening to the sounds of old school artists like A1 Green and Barry White, as well as contem- porary music by Kem. For over 40 years, Donald worked in construction. He retired as a certified brick mason from Grenadier Construction Corpora- tion in NY. He loved his craft and was a master at his skill which allowed him to become an entrepreneur and start his own business. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
