Donny passed away last Saturday after having a heart attack while pheasant hunting in Iowa.   <br />&nbsp;Say a prayer for his family.  This was a very sudden and unexpected death.  Nancy said to me she was at least happy he died doing what he enjoyed most.  </p>  <p>"For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life."  John 3:16<br /> Donny was a believer.  <br /> The angels are now riding the mostly finely tuned bikes in Heaven.</p>  <p>Thanks Donny for being such an awesome employee.  We will miss you.</p>  <p>Carl</p>
