I have so missed seeing Dr & Mrs. Donovan this past year with the pandemic keeping us from our regular Saturday Mass. I was looking forward to seeing them both again soon. Dr D was always so kind & friendly with a quick hand wave. I’ll so miss him & will keep his wife & family in my thoughts & prayers.
A great loss for our community

Thinking of You
So many times as I walked past the house and Doc was out there tending to his beautiful yard and showing me the newest plant he had just put in his garden ~ I will always remember him that way.
An Icon is gone from our neighborhood and I will miss him so much!
Mary and Family, I am heartbroken over your loss. You are all in my prayers.
