One of my best high school friends. We called ourselves Gar Scouts. We spent many hours working on cars in Charles Riggs garage in Morgan's Point.

To Beth and Donnie's family,
I was so sorry to hear of Donnie's passing. Just found out today from Dad (Jimmy Byrd). Wished we had been able to come. Even though we were cousins, I didn't know Donnie well. We lived too far apart to ever get to know each other, but I remember my Uncle Broth and Aunt Lorene well . They used to come and stay with us when they would visit. I loved them much. Again, so sorry for all of you. Love, D'Lynn Byrd Williams
Beth, Jerry and I send our prayers and condolences.
Donnie was a really good guy. I am very sorry to hear of his passing.
Seems like yesterday we were drinking coffee in Charles Riggs mothers kitchen now its 53 years and a life time later.
