Donnie and I met years ago at his brother and sister-in-law's cookout. We were casual acquaintances but got to know each other pretty well after our first date. I was gifted concert tickets from my daughter to see Brian McKnight at the Seneca Falls Casino. I asked Donnie if he would be interested in going. He accepted and we had a great time. We continued to enjoy each other's company. We went on dates to Lewiston, NY, various areas around Buffalo, and traveled. We have been dating for over 10 years. Donnie retired shortly after we met and I worked several more years. I retired and relocated to Raleigh, NC in June 2024. Donnie chose not to live without me and joined me in October 2025 and the rest is history. Barb
