Jack,
I've not posted but a couple of times here. Donny was a very good friend (as much as possible thru phone calls, e-mails etc. and I was honored to know him.

You should know Jack that Donny had much respect for you, and would share that with me thru our conversations.

He always had time to look at clips of my daughter and sent me some very complete anyalysis.

I will miss him greatly.
