Donna Elaine Bandy

Donna and I were in Highroller Toastmasters together back in the 80's. How time passes! Donna had an infectious sense of humor. She was an outstanding Toastmaster and won many competitions. She was also a friend. I did not know Donna was ill but wish I did so I could have said good bye. Good bye, Donna, you were one of a kind and wonderful.

I am deeply saddened to read of Donna's death. Donna touched many lives, mine being only one, while she worked at TxDOT. Everyone who worked with Donna or was also a friend of Donnas knew they could always count on her. I remember the times she helped out at our Boy Scouts Haunted Houses; she was a great witch.....I will always remember her great humor and her laughter....she will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.

I regret the loss of your sister Donna. Hopefully, the thoughts, prayers and kind deeds of her friends will bring you some comfort.

Donna's Family:
I've known Donna since we were 17 years old and traveled to Europe together. I liked her right off because she was so genuine, smart, and made me laugh harder than anyone I've ever known. Despite all the hardships she encountered in her too short life, I think what will stay with me forever is the deep chuckle she had when something tickled her and her quick wit. She was a lovely person and I miss her very much.

To Donna's Family:
You are in our thoughts and prayers. From 1986 to my retirement in Aug 1999, my visits to Austin for meetings and training with Donna and my frequent telephone contacts with her were always so uplifting and "Donna always made your day better". Thanks for the memories Donna and thanks to the Lord and your family for sharing you with us at TXDOT through the years.
