Donna Lee Nutting Bertell

Jack and family,

Laurie and I along with our entire small group have been praying for Donna for quite some time. Though I am sure all of you will miss her dearly, I hope you can be confident she is at peace. We will continue to pray for encouragement, peace and comfort for all of you.

I (Laurie) do want to share a short story. I saw your mom at her best when you brought her to the Mother-Daughter Tea at Greater Portland Bible Church a few years ago. She seemed to be...

Jack, Ashley and family,
In the few years that I knew Donna, I so enjoyed my visits with her. The energy and concern she expressed to those she loved went far, far beyond the measure for which we do for others. Donna seemed to me to be a very special person who put others before herself. She was an amazing individual, I was blessed and honored to have known her. I am so sorry for your loss, my prayers continue to embrace your family as they have thoughout Donna's illness.

Donna . . . you will stay in my thoughts & heart my Best Friend, as beautiful, genuine and one of a kind.
I am so thankful for you and to be a part of your family. Cathy

Jack and Family:

It’s been a long time now, but I still remember the hikes that Donna and the girls joined us on and visiting Donna and the rest in the A Floor office when I needed something. She always treated me with respect, even when I probably deserved other. Those were the days. My heart and prayers go out to you and the family.

To Jack and family,
Although Jerry and I did not know Donna, except for a few brief conversations with her at our reunion, she seemed like a very lovely person. Cousin Bill has talked about you and Donna and how much he has enjoyed getting to know you. We wish that we could have experienced the pleasure as well. Bill, Jerry and I want to express our sympathy and sadness in your loss and want you to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

My deepest sympathy
