We were saddened to learn of our cousin Don’s passing. Sincere condolences to Bonnie and family.
So very sorry for your loss Aunt Bonnie. My condolences to you and your family. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Thank you for such a wonderful celebration of Don’s life. It is so true, his life was not just an event it was a life style. I will never forget a time he preaced in LaGrange on being unoffendable. It spoke into my heart & life. May God be with your. family in a very special way. Pat Corlew
Dearest Bonnie, sadly a nasty cold has hit our family and we are unable to attend. But, we rejoice for Don completing the race set before him, and his reaching the mark of the high calling in Christ. Our hearts understand the loss of such a wonderful family treasure. Be comforted for the resurrection to come and the precious memories forever etched in your hearts. Don (and you also, Bonnie) have well etched, the beautiful witness of our Lord and Saviour upon all our hearts! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 Until we meet again to worship our King…
Bonnie, we share with you our love and prayers and condolences, Don was a special friend (as you are too) and a tremendous soul winner. An evangelist of tremendous ability. Many lives are changed because of his love for others. We will miss his smile, quick quips, and passion for Jesus! Jesus has called a champion back to His side.
So many amazing times together, especially sharing what God was doing, snacking on pepperettes and chocolate almonds. I will miss you uncle but we will celebrate again in heaven.
To Bonnie and Family
So sorry to hear about the passing of Don keep all the good memories in your heart
take care of yourself Bonnie

Dear Bonnie, our Lord promises, ” I will turn their mourning into gladness; I will give them comfort and joy instead of sorrow.” Jer. 31,13. – May His peace, which transcends all understanding, fill your heart, as you grieve Don’s passing to be with the Lord, and as you try to cope with the void that his absence leaves behind. You remain in our prayers. Kurt & Hanna.
Dear Bonnie, You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers as you mourn the loss of your husband Don, such a faithful servant of our Lord and King. His Lord will have said unto him, “Well done good and faithful servant, enter thou into the joy of the Lord.” May you find much comfort in the peace only our Lord can give to us, as well as the love and support of family and friends. God bless.
Mi querida Bonnie: Donald y tú habéis sido unos grandes siervos de Dios en Santiago de Compostela. Os recuerdo con mucho cariño, y que en este tiempo de duelo recibáis toda la familia el consuelo de parte de Dios que tanto necesitan vuestros corazones en estos momentos.
Bonnie, Martha y Marcos os envío un abrazo enorme desde España.
The family of God who knew Don Stuckless has lost one of the most anointed soul winner we have ever known.
Don and Bonnie has been our precious dear friends most of their lives. Loving, kind, compassionate, and committed in touching lives for the kingdom of God.

Whenever I pray for my extended family, you are all included, even though, sadly, I don’t know you. Praise the Lord, I will get to know you in God’s timing! Don is now another person in my “cloud of witnesses”. Be encouraged by His eternal blessings around us always.
In our thoughts and prayers! Blessings!

Our condolences Bonnie, to you and your family, on the loss of Don. He will be greatly missed. We have many fond memories of conversations and visits with both of you. May God surround you with His comfort and love. Keith and Sherry
Queridos Bonnie, Marta y Marcos, junto con toda la familia, queremos transmitiros nuestro cariño y afecto. Donald fue, y es todavía, un ejemplo de hombre usado por Dios, de ministro fiel a su llamado, y de esposo y padre ejemplar. Sabemos que por fin está en el lugar que Jesús preparo para él, y que estará feliz cantando a plena voz ante el trono De Dios, unida su voz a la de los ángeles y Los Santos que nos precedieron. Para vosotros deseamos la dulce y consuelo del Espíritu Santo. Nosotros no queremos ver esto como algo triste ( a pesar de la punzada en el corazón) sino como el final triunfante y feliz de una vida que deja en muchos una huella imperecedera, y que ha contribuido a llenar el cielo de “tristes ovejas huidas del redil”. Os queremos, y damos gracias a Dios por habernos permitido conocer y disfrutar a Donald. Un fuerte abrazo.
Dear Bonnie & Family
My deepest feelings to you all in this sad time. Our world has lost a beautiful soul, a profound sadness must be in your hearts. A great loss.

Dear Bonnie and family, My thoughts and prayers are with you for the comfort snd peace of the Holy Spirit. Gary and I were appointed missionaries at the same time you were.
