So sorry to learn of Donnie’s passing . I knew Donnie from back in the day when he was assigned as a trooper at Troop L in Springdale.
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

This man was the most caring, honest, funny person. I just adored him. He loved everyone. We shared a birthday and would call each other and tell Happy Birthday. He will be missed by so many but God has made a beautiful person to bring home. Love you always.

Donnie, since the day I met you, you have been and will always be, one of the very finest men, I have ever known.
My grown kids still tell Papa Bullet stories, they loved to go to Walmart with him and then to the Pancake House to eat with the troopers, four wheelers and camping at Horselhead, so many many memories..
Janet, Lisa, Scott, and Brent my heart breaks for you all, he was great man… He leaves an amazing legacy behind, to remember and cherish.
We love you all dearly and will see you soon.

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.
