Donna was such an amazing lady. She loved the Lord and was a beautiful Christian. I rejoice for her as I know her frail and broken body has been healed. She is no longer in pain but in the arms of her saviour. Selfishly my heart cries for all the family and friends she has left behind. She is holding her baby boy, Rois, for the very first time and I see that gracious smile she always had each day. Thank you so much for all of your sharing and caring for the days we had together.

Donna was such a joy, I was her nurse aide and I got to know her very well. She was so funny and always complained about her hair, but it always looked great no matter what she said....I will miss her because she was always nice to me and treated me well, God Bless you Donna.
