Jennifer and I are sad to learn of Mr. Donaldson's passing and offer our sincere sympathy to the family. I hope you find comfort knowing he was so well liked and respected.
My heart is so sad, it is hard to lose a friend you have known and trusted, and loved, for over 50 years. I have so many special memories of our time together, sometimes we laughed so hard we could hardly get our breath! Jim was a special husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. He will be sadly missed by Gloria, his children and his many friends.
All of you have our deepest sympathy. Our prayers are with all of you.
Gloria, I give my sympathy to you for the loss of your husband and Jim on the loss of your Dad. I also will be 83 this July and am a Korean Vet.
I remember Jim quite well..
Always enjoyed talking with him about our common school bus driving days.
He always loved the children and never found fault with any of them.
I enjoyed drinking ;coffee with him and other Korean veterans.like ourselves.

Our condolences to the family of Jim. He was the "Best" bus driver any of us could ask for. We cherish the memories and pictures of him taking the time to pose with my children every year getting on and off the bus. I think he was as excited as I was. Thank you Jim. Rest in peace. Our thought and prayers are with you all at this time.
Heartfelt sympathy and prayers for comfort to the entire Donaldson family. So very sorry for your loss. Jeanna and Bill Supple
My love and prayers are with my sweet Aunt Gloria and all my cousins at this sad time. Uncle Jim was one in a million and the best Godfather ever! He will be sadly missed. All my love and deepest sympathy!
Lynette, Steve and family
Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of Jim's family. Jim always had a smile on his face when he picked the kids up for school. Mr. Donaldson took care of many lucky children who rode his bus over the years greeting them every morning and afternoon. Many times Jim knew their schedules better than the kids did.
Sorry for your loss. Jim was a great guy and role model for all those around him.
Sending my thoughts and prayers to the entire family. Jim was one of the best! I hope they have coffee in heaven!
My deepest sympathy and love to my family at this time. Uncle Jim was an amazing man, and a great blessing to know. There is peace in knowing his pain is no longer, and he is in the care of his Savior now. Rest in peace, Uncle Jim. Pray for us as we grieve.
We are so sorry for your loss. Jim was such a great person. He will be missed. You are all in our thoughts & prayers.
To The Family, I want to express my deepest sympathy for your loss. I also want to share the comfort of John 5:28,29 where we are promised that those who have fallen asleep in death have the hope of receiving a "resurrection" back to life. Life on an earth restored to a beautiful paradise. Psalms 37:11 says, "The meek ones themselves will possess the earth, and they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace." While we await that wonderful time please find comfort in these promises. www.JW.org
To Gloria & family - I have nothing but the warmest memories of both you and Jim. He was a pretty special guy. A real gentleman and a wonderful role model not only for his children, but for a community of children. Both of you were always so kind and welcoming to the friends of your children. God has warmly welcomed Jim into His arms. No doubt about it. I will never forget Jim, and will keep lifting you, Mark, Randy, Jeff, Jim and Marsha and their families in prayer. I pray that the beautiful memories carry you and that when you look at those kids/grandkids/great-grandkids, that you will always see Jim's lasting legacy. Much love to all of you. Deb
We are so sorry for your loss.
Jim,
You will be missed. I remember those days at the bus garage chatting away the day when I went to visit dad. Until we meet again.
