9.13 Donnie

Donnie was a sweet baby. He had brown eyes. Donnie saved Clarence’s life 2 times. Once it was on a stone boat and then again when we were hauling water on a cart.

On the farm he picked stones, carried drinking water for the house and he liked to feed the pigs slop.

Donnie was at the shop in Humboldt for awhile. He really likes Mary Ann Pelly.

Donnie was in Elwood Lodge for 21 years. He liked the staff there. Marie always wheeled Donnie outside in his wheelchair in the summer. He had lots of friends there, too.

Donnie always came home for two weeks. He had 2 girlfriends.

Donnie is my brother. I love him. He passed away December 13.
