Have my greatest life memories of growing up with my Cousins Donna and Doug. She was ALWAYS there for everyone in the Seitsinger family and for ALL her friends and family. Wish all the best to everyone, Doug, and to her kids especially. Thinking of her and all of you. -David Seitsinger

Dona was one of my youngest cousins and memories of spending time with her and Doug at the beach, and at the lake are special memories for me. (swimming, motorcycles, boating .....). I didn't see them often since we lived some distance from each other but it was always a special occasion when I did. I was not surprised at all when Dona grew up to be a wonderful person. I wish we could have spent more time together. My deepest condolences to her family - especially her two girls and Doug....

This was my favorite photo of Dona, which happened to be taken at my wedding. While she was very caring and nurturing, she always had a fun and playful streak to her. She was patient, insightful, welcoming, and overall a wonderful human being. Dona was a ray of sunshine in the world, and I wish we would have had more time. Rest easy, Dona.

I knew it would happen, she told me she was dying, although I thought I could will it be postponed . We were friends, she was a Secretary in Arena Towers, I walked by her office daily. We had lunch, the meals lasted 30 years. I´ve continued my text to her, when she didn´t have the strength to respond. She is the atoms of exploding stars, now free to explore galaxies, universes. And a rock feels no pain And an island never cries Then Why do I morn your loss so much

Thank you, friend. I´m forever changed because of you. I miss you already and will love you always.

Dona, you and Tammy were my first babysitters. Y´all were the coolest gals I knew. I will never forget you busting up with laughter while laying down on the living room floor on Crestwood St in Clute with the two of you... Ceiling fan wobbling; and when you said it was going to fall and kill us, 4 year old me said, "Don´t worry Dona, it can´t fall on us, it´s all screwed up!" (Into the ceiling, but y´all knew that screwed up meant something entirely different. RIP Dona. You were a beautiful...

It was a joy knowing Dona. I met her when she lived next door to my daughter and I enjoyed taking Stella and Fiona to Sonic with my granddaughter, Katheen. She truly made a difference and I'm so grateful to have known her. Prayers for her family.

I was Dona's neighbor while she was a young girl growing up in Lake Jackson. She was cute as a bug and always laughing and making noise. And so mischievous, she pulled the old trick of the wallet tied to the string out in the street in front of my house. And yes, I fell for it I reached down to pick it up and she jerked it away, but I could hear her laughing behind the bushes. I kept up with her through the years she was always working and being the best mother, she could to her two Angels...

We became friends toward the end of our senior year. You were always cheerful and bright and a welcome site. You are always there to offer a helping hand, I only wish I had known so I could offer you a helping hand at this time. By the time I find out, you are already gone. Godspeed Dona... Godspeed!
