View all 114 ReflectionsDonna, it was such a shock to hear that you had passed when I came in to work the night of your accident. Although we never met face to face you were always calling the office on those long Del Rio nights keeping us awake. And although I was sometimes annoyed that the phone was ringing at such late hours, I'd trade all the annoyance in the world just so that you were still with us. Rest easy Agent Doss.
