|
WHEREAS, This generous couple owns and operates the legendary |
|
Donn's Depot, an iconic business that has been named by Esquire |

|
musicians and encouraged them in their careers; and |

WHEREAS, Each year, Donn and Arlene host a golf tournament |
|
for Crime Stoppers in memory of their son who was killed in a |
|
robbery; the tournament has raised thousands of dollars to help |
