Donnie

Donnie was an inspiration to our community and especially to the students in our school. For 20 plus years he volunteered his time and was at every sporting event and FFA event we had. He passed away this past weekend, he will be greatly missed.

It amazes me the impact one person can have on so many. While he was in the hospital tons of students went to visit him, one even made this amazing video and posted it on YouTube.com. This video was posted 2 days ago and has already had almost 5,000 views. Wylie won't be the same without him, and I dread going to the football games and not having him there. Donnie taught our students acceptance and so much more, my heart is breaking in the loss.

that's so cool that you posted that on here! You are so technologically advanced!

I can't believe it's Friday Night and Donnie won't be at the game. It's been really cool to see how much he meant to all the kids though!
