From the first time I met Donovan more than 25 years ago, I observed firsthand his love and passion for music. He was always kind, generous, and welcoming to me as his brother-in-law. My thoughts and prayers go out to the McKitty family during this painful and difficult time. May he rest in peace.

So sorry for your loss. I met Donovan as a teen growing up in Bklyn and was captivated by his warm personality and honest values. His dynamic guitar playing caught my attention early on and we occasionally connected throughout the years. My heartfelt condolences to his family. No doubt he's jamming with Jimi !
Peace brother you'll be missed and not forgotten.

It was my pleasure to have met Donovan during one of his many tours with Steel Pulse. A super nice man, positive, open, engaging, and intelligent. I'll never forget meeting him, he spoke to me as a lifelong friend, interested in my take on things, and yet we only met one time. There's absolutely no way he'd have known the effect he had on me. Thanks Donovan!
