Lorraine, Dominic, David, and Aunt Joanne,
My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. God gave me the chance to visit Mr. Nattress one month ago. The twinkle in his eye and the broad smile on his face, as he reminisced about days gone by when we were children, brought the assurance that the journey of which he was about to enter would be a peaceful one with no regrets. Lorraine and David, you have brought your Dad much joy. Even though I can not be there with you at this moment, as you were there for me less than a month ago, my spirit will hold you in the days to come.
Love, Hugs, and Prayers,
Michelle

Lorraine, David & Family:
Words cannot express the feelings, thoughts and prayers that are with you at this time. It should not have been a shock, but it was, as with all passings, as I feel as though I lost my best friend, which I have. Don was like a brother to me, as a matter of fact, he adopted me as his brother, many, many years ago, starting in 1st grade, thru graduation, service, Dixie Cup, dating/dancing, marrying close girl friends, raising our families, on & on to the present time. It was one long ride and friendship and now he has left me alone, the last of "Our Gang" as he goes to join, Joe McInerny, Jim Lily, and Paul Hummell. What a team we were but it was fun, we had a blast and out of it all he found his dream "Jeanette" and a wonderful family he was so proud of. What more could you ask for? I'll miss him and wishing I was with all of you now saying my good-byes, but things never really happen at the right time..........
To my friend and brother, Don, God speed and make a place for me with the "Gang"..............

To Lorraine, David and Family,
I was so sorry to hear about your father. I went to visit him in the hospital a few months ago but he was asleep and I didn't have the heart to wake him. I will always remember the nice times I had in your home with the entire family there. He will be missed in many ways. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you. May God bless you and keep you strong.
Love,
