My grandparents lived in Clarksville and when I visited I would always try to ride with Donnie on patrol… It was always entertaining. Haha.
Donnie was a genuinely good man… RIP Trooper Anderson

I don't believe that I ever met you in person, but I have thanked Jesus for you.
Many many years ago, while at home, you heard a young girl scream. She and a friend were mowing the yard next door, and she fell backward into an old well. You heard her over both lawn mowers. She was barely hanging onto the rocks when you got there and pulled her to safety. She said often that you saved her life that day. That girl was my sister, Deanna (Tilley) Jordon. Say hi when you get to heaven.
So sorry to hear of your loss. My condolences to your family. Always thought so much of him. He was a good man.
I am so sorry to hear this. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.
Sorry for your loss may God have help you in the time of loss . Thank you for your service as a state Police officer
