I am so sorry for your loss. I was glad to have been able to meet your sister, she seemed like such a lovely person. Please know that our family is here for you at this difficult time, and that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Barbara and Family, I am very sorry to hear of your sister's death. I hope that you may find some comfort in knowing many people are thinking of you in your time of sorrow. You and all your family are in my prayers.

I am sitting here this evening, feeling so sad after reading about Donna in the paper. I worked with Donna years ago at the Milford office, then continued seeing her when I would go in with my own family for our healthcare. We had a working bond as well as discussing the snowmobile conditions on Mondays! She was special to me in that she reminded me of my aunt, also a nurse. Donna was a very capable, vibrant person and tonight I just feel such a loss for myself...I can only imagine what...

we wish to extend of deepest sympathy to you and your family.God bless,Earlene Onufrak,and Polly Jabre

Wendy and I were saddened to hear of Donna's passing. I was fortunate to have worked with her many years at Moore and Compair. The twinkel in her eyes and wonderful sense of humor will surely be missed. Please except our sincere wishes of condolence. The following Poem is something I put together in remembrance

Look between your fingers
You will also feel mine
Gently our hands are clinging
I have never left your side

Never...
