Thanks, Eb, and no, it isn't... Even when you really understand that with a life style like Donnie's he wasn't going to live all that long...

Just the night before a neighbor had stopped up to return a plate, sans the apple bread that we had baked for alot of the holler folks, and we were talkin' and as every conversation that goes on in the holler Donnie came up... And I mentioned that we should be happy to have him because he really wasn't going to be with us all that long... I didn't realize just how true that was...
