I met Donald when I cleaned house after school in high school for his mom. And we have been Facebook friends for years. He was a very sweet, kind and intelligent man who will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers for the Pohlner family.

So sad when families lose a loved one. I met his brother,Roger, through Farm Bureau , years ago. So I just had to recognize Roger and the loss of his brother.

I am still in a daze from this great loss of my longtime buddy!!
Donald & I shared some good times together in the past several years. He
was a regular attender of my auction in Trumann, attended several gigs of my 2 sons when they would perform in Jonesboro and/ or Waldenburg.
We discussed “ things “ regularly via texts & Donald called on me a few times when he had some unfortunate situations occur. I loved him as my own brother.
No one can know the friendship of 2 people the way DP & myself shared.
My heart is broken & will remain just that for a long time.
R I P, DP!!
Loved you, bro!!
