A tragic loss for her boys, a life taken too young. Hoping that her love will remain with you and comfort you. Linda Raffa (Maietti)

Words can not express the pain of losing a family member. Donna was such a big part of my childhood that I am at a loss of words. She was a beautiful person and a loving mother, may the boys always remember that and bring it with them thru life. Another wonderful person gone way too soon, we love you Donna!!

Donna, your leaving is very hard to accept. Your wonderful perspective brought me joy everytime we met. Our father in heaven surely must have needed to see that smile, hear your laugh and be close to your loving personality. Until we meet again.

I remember everything about you,
your voice, your smile, your touch,
the way you walked, the way you talked,
the way you looked at me, meant so much.
I remember all the words you said to me,
some funny, some kind, some wise,
all of the things you did for me,
I see now with different eyes.
I remember every moment we shared,
seems like only yesterday,
or maybe it was eons ago,
It's really hard to say.
You are gone from me now,
but one thing they can't take away,
your memory resides inside my heart,
and lights up my darkest days.
I will forever love and miss you deeply,
Lisa

During times like these, death is indeed an enemy. May you all look forward to the day when we all can say:"Death, where is your victory? Death, where is your sting?" Until that day arrive, may the God of all comfort sustain your during your bereavement.

Donna,
There are no words to say how much you will be missed, or how proud I was of you, your strength when others would have folded, your beauty, and your giving heart. It didn't matter that we went our seperate ways and sometimes lost touch. Because we always came back together at some point and it was just like yesterday.You knew I loved you, and if you ever needed me i would be there, as you would be for me. My regret is I didn't have the chance to see you or talk to you one more time.My heart goes out to your sons that you loved so much, I wish i could ease their pain. But though your presence isn't here, your memory will live on forever, and your goodness will never be forgotten.
My Love Always,
Charlotte

To the Anthony family,
We are sorry for the loss of your loved one. May the comforting words from family and friends continue to strengthen you, and the fond memories of your loved one continue to provide comfort to you.
May you find a measure of peace in God's promises found in the last book of the Holy Scriptures 21:4..."And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away."

The awful truth is that nothing will make your grief go away and it may go on for a very long time. The comforting truth is that God is there to help you and sustain you through it. Reach out and take His hand. Let Him hold you and carry you through this. Peace to all the family.
