To Everyone who loved Donna,
I don’t know anyone who didn’t. Donna was definitely an Angel on earth. She was always doing something to help others. Sometimes those things were a little mischievous. Oh how she loved to pull off a trick on someone!
There now is a very big void in life. May God help those Donna influenced to continue spreading her kindness and love.
