Donna Salazar

Donna was my neighbor who lived across the street from me on Baden St. in S.F.

Donna's strong commitment to fostering community spirit was much
appreciated by us neighbors on Baden St. in S.F. Back in those days,
she hosted for us Baden St. neighbors many SAFE meetings to combat crime. She also initiated a SAFE Block Baden St. map for us.

I will miss this witty and delightful person with whom I lunched a few times yearly. Not having heard from dear Donna over the last few months (the pandemic aside) I tracked down her status via the SF Office of Police Accountability. I did love working as a volunteer mediator with Donna. She knew how to enjoy sharing ideas and caustic jokes. Will miss you, gal!

Rest un Pesce next to muy Father.

Donna was compassionate, committed, and a doer. She didn’t just make a phone call -- she brought soup, gave a lift, got out the vote, organized the neighborhood for parking permits, hosted polls in her home, resolved community disputes, and fed our cats when we were away. She was a steadfast friend through the best and the hardest of times. She was a good citizen, a community leader, and a quality human being. We love you and miss you, Donna.

Donna worked extremely hard to successfully improve the OCC mediation program. The community at large, the SFPD and the SFPOA appreciated her efforts to improve transparency and communication for all.

Rest in peace Donna. I have many found memories of you, Lucas, George and the rest of the crew as a bus boy at Pierre's.
