Jennifer and Amanda
So sorry to hear about your mother's sudden death. My husband Chuck was her cousin. He passed away in Feb and she wrote a wonderful poem about him. I know that she will be missed by many. I will keep you in my prayers.

I know Bill, Donna's first husband and knew Donna's sister, Elyse. I am truly sorry that this devout Christian women was taken suddenly but God had bigger plans for Donna, an unseen blessing in the next life that we on earth cannot view. I pray for her daughters who were close to their mom. God Bless the family.

I was deeply saddened to learn of Donna's passing. Donna was a lovely, thoughtful person and when passing her in the hall, she always had a smile and encouragement for others to have a better day. I am keeping your family in our prayers.

I am very sorry to hear about Donna's passing. She was a lovely person, always ready to lend a ear and was a pleasure to work with. She loved talking about her daughters and how proud she was of them. She will be truly missed. My thoughts are with her girls.

Jenni, Amanda, and Donna's family,

My wife Deb and I are so sorry for Donna's loss. She was a dear friend and valued coworker of mine, an intelligent, fast-learning, conscientous, and hard working lady. All of us who were privileged to know her will never forget her wisdom and quiet kindness.

May God grant you comfort in your time of grief, and may Donna rest in peace, and rise in glory.
