So sorry to read of your mom's passing. As I remember her, she was alway such a loving, kind mom.
May grace and peace be yours in abundance.

Aunt Donis was such a kind and caring person. When I talked to her, the first thing she asked was how's your children, it was never about her. At Aunt Bea and Uncle Bill's 50th Anniversary Party at Scott and Christine's, she was concerned about my 80 year old mother-in-law, she sat there all night keeping her company, just talking to her and making sure she didn't need anything. She will be sadly missed. Your family is in our prayers. Love
Frank and MaryAnn Praysner and Family

Grandma Love was such a beautiful woman and always made me feel a part of her family - an "extra granddaughter" she always called me :)
Prayers for grace and peace for your family. She will be missed...

The service in Florida was awesome and her church family adored her, as all of us did. When I was little, my sister was very reserved and took care of everything nicely. Me, her bratty sister, was the opposite. As we grew in years, we spent a lot of time together ( the 4 of us) playing cards and spending holidays with 10 or more family. We became very close and I wish I could be half as great as she was. She is now in heaven with her husand and my Bill and many Aunts, Uncles etc.. They are probably going to play cards. My love to my nieces, nephews, great niece & nephews, always Love Aunt Bea.

Love Family,
Dony was a special lady loved by all. She said she loved when Dick cxalled her Dony Boone. I will miss talking to her. She always asked about my family. Your family is in my prayers.

Gary, Lisa and Maurianna,
We wanted to express our sorrow for you and your family for such a terrible loss! Paul & I really enjoyed seeing Donis at the Baptism and as always she had nothing but good wishes for us and our children! The only thing that might help you during this time, is knowing that she is in a better place. She was a great lady who loved her family and friends and will be missed very much by all who had the pleasure of knowing her. God Bless you and your family always!
Lots of Love,
Paul & Michelle Griffith

Patsy, Richard, Gary and families,
The memorial held in Orlando was spectacular and Aunt Donis would have been humbled in hearing the kind words that all of the participants said in her honor. She truly was one in a million and one of the kindest people that has ever graced this earth. Two weeks ago when I called to see how she was feeling, she didn't want to talk about herself but rather asked about my son, Christian. No matter what her condition she always wondered about someone else and her love that was so prevalent in life, will certainly be noticeably missing in her death.
Many friends and family have passed before her and she will be greeted in Heaven with open arms by all of them. She joins in death, her beloved Walter, her mother Virginia, her father John, her brother Jack, her mother and father in law, two brother-in-laws, and many Aunts, Uncles and Cousins. All fortunate to have her in the family.
We will miss you, Aunt Donis. Thank you for kindness and never ending love.
