I am so proud to have ever met Donna! Her love for the Lord is what I remember about her the most. Her desire was to always share God's love and to have her loved ones experience this personal relationship with God first hand. I am happy to know she is now in the presence of her loving Father. May you be inspired by her faith and know how much God loves you. I thank God for blessing me through Donna! God's peace be with you and may His comfort bring you through your loss.
