Donnie blessed all of our lives with a special magic only a true Socratic Pirate could. He was a brilliant man with incredible talents. Though he always claimed Amanda Kate and Belle were the best thing he ever did. 

His spirit will rest in the heart of Waverly and everyone who experienced his gentle love, deep wisdom, and zeal for life. 

 Through the laughter and tears, joy and frustration, ALL the brandy and beers ... Donnie wove his legend into our hearts and minds. He wanted everyone to feel love and enjoy life. His memory will forever live as a treasure in us all!

This is a tribute to his daughters to support his funeral arrangements. They extend their deepest gratitude for everyone’s generosity and love for Donnie.
