The fundraiser was started by his five-year-old son’s mother, Jamie Fee, seeking $5,000 on Wednesday.
His sister, Annie Thibault said he was always around to protect and care for the ones he loved.
“My brother was my best friend,” she said. “He was always there for me when I needed him; loyal and protective. He will forever be my guardian angel.”
Thibault’s friends saw from him a positive and funny personality who was always smiling.
“Donnie was the type of friend who could always make you laugh,” said Maria Caravaggio. “Once he had you in his life, you knew he would do anything for you if you needed him. He loved people with an intense passion and he always tried to be a light in people's lives.”
“Donnie was my neighbour and became a close friend during high school. We just clicked. He was always a stand-up guy, always joking around and pranking his sisters,” said Alyshia Harvey. “He went out of his way to make you laugh and cheer you up. He always had your back.”
Ryder was born on July 14, 2016. Photo courtesy of Annie Thibault.
