I have never met the man myself, but from all the stories I’ve heard about him, he seems like a real cool cat. He must have made a strong impact on those he loved and his wisdom and spirit will live on through them. To Allison, Casey, and TNT, and to all of those who were lucky enough to be a part of Mr. O’Donnell’s life, we are sorry for your loss.
