Our family was blessed to live right next door to the Donohoos on Glenwood Lane since 1959. The Donohoos were the best neighbors anyone could ever ask for: Ruth, Tommy, Patricia, Daniel, and Donald (I think Daniel was minutes older?). Even the dogs, our Duchess and their Diana, were best friends! Tommy was the smartest, knows everything man I've ever met. Built his own garage, built his own small plane, knew everything about everything, could fix anything, and had all kinds of stories to tell. Ruth was always smiling, always ready to listen to whatever silly things we kids wanted to share with her, and always enjoying having all us kids visiting her kids and visiting her. She was a great cook, and frequently shared her home cooking with us ever-hungry Carlsons. The world would be such a beautiful place if everyone had neighbors like Tommy and Ruth. We will all miss her, but she had a long and happy life, and now she joins Tommy and Patricia.
