I just spoke with Cathy, Donald's Wife, and the DFWM group is encouraged to wear motorcycle (Ducati or Beemer) attire. Cathy believes Donald would love that and I fully agree with her.

What a beautiful sunny day to honor the memory of Donald. He was an honorary Ducatisti on his Bimmer and was part of some great times had by this group. Maybe in the afterlife he's finally riding the Ducati he always wanted!  See y'all at 3 and at the reception following. |

Well, a sad day. But what a beautiful ceremony. I'm so glad to have known Donald. I just wish I had had more time to hang out with him.
It was good to catch up with a few folks I hadn't been in touch with lately. I'll make sure the next time we meet it will be under better circumstances.

The service for Donald had a great turnout! Shows what a man of character he was and a good role model to follow.
It was good to see his riding friends there for sure!

Indeed great to see everyone. Lets try and get together more often, things have slowed here, and not under times like these.
Donald's character was on full display, a great man indeed.

Crap guys... sorry I'm late to the party on this one, but this is sad to hear. Sorry for everyone's loss (the Ducati family's especially).

Wow. I'm extremely saddened to hear this. Donald was always the first person to send me some cheering or inspiring Facebook message in light of the slightest sign of distress. He was a genuinely good soul with a light that will continue to shine brightly in so many lives for long after his passing.
I know i've been off the boards for some time, and just came here after finding this out after a Facebook message went unanswered.
It's good to see the community is still going strong. Definitely miss you guys and hope for a reunion sometime soon.
Much love to Donald's family and those that knew him better. Things like this put it in perspective - how to live and how fleeting it is. Damn, what a loss.
Love,
Lucrece
