Getting ready for Lillie Askew

Don always loved babies...Henry 2019
I knew i was going to have trouble with that boy, the 1st time I called On Sandra! I drove up in my Plymouth Barricuda and went in her house and the 1st thing she said was did you leave your keys on your car? Yes, and by the time we got back outside he done had my keys trying to stuff in the gas tank !!!!
Good times ...
Caught red handed
I love y’all so so so much!! I’m gonna miss him calling us baby cakes and him convinced we can’t swim🤣 I’m also gonna miss when Becca and I were little and he’d wake us up early to offer us coffee and take us to check perch traps. He was my favorite ever I will love and miss him so much!! I’m praying for y’all!
I always loved when he called me Tina! My Heart! Always smiling and happy especially if he had an ice cream!! I am so happy I got to talk to him last week!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️.
"Hey Siri, call Micheal Bane, my brother in law"
When he was Baptized at Genesis Church and he asked Bro. Joe if he could still gamble! Lol Don brought joy to everyone he meet
I remember riding on a four-wheeler with Don a long, long time ago, and I will always remember him being happy and smiling. ❤️
