I am truly saddened to hear of Donna's passing. She was one grade behind me at Northumberland High School and I will always remember her sweet nature and smile. My heartfelt prayers go out to all her family. I know this has to be such a terrible time for you. Keep the faith and God will see you through this as he does all things.

Betty & Family,
How sadden I was to learn of the passing of Donna. I have such fond memories of her while at RCC and even of her wedding at Beale Memorial Church in Tappahannock. I will be in prayer for you and the family.
