We're thinking of all of you & hoping it will be easier for you as time goes on. <br /><br />When we were young kids and lived just around the corner from Aunt Winnie & Uncle Don, I always thought Donnie was the "cool" one. He would probably laugh at that. He always seemed so much OLDER than Cate, Billy & Jimmy (this was pre-Ann!) not to mention me & my sister Mo. <br /><br />I have several fond memories of Donnie getting Billy to stop teasing us (imagine that), and getting Aunt Winnie very quickly once when Jimmy got stung by a bee. If he felt freaked out, he didn't show it. I was freaked out and glad he was there! That was scary.<br /><br />I lost my dad just over a year ago, and my heart goes out to all of you. <br /><br />Beth (Killila) Eller & FamilyBeth Eller (beth_eller@comcast.net)http://xfinityconnect.mail.comcast.net/noreply@blogger.com
