Not sure what to say?

I'm so sorry to hear of Donna's passing. Donna was a force! Donna was truly an extraordinary woman and such a special person. She filled her friends & family with happiness and was a great mentor. She always offered support and wisdom. I will always remember coming down to Inner Harbor during the May Day long weekend. Donna always had Dutch Bakery treats to share!! I have some very fond memories of boating with my parents & the CCYC group!! RIP Donna. Tracy Carmichael (nee Fischer)

Dear Jack , Jack and family Andrea and i are sadden by your loss. Donna was a dear and kind person loved by all. Donna and Nadine mentored our daughter Renee on work ethic at the bakery years ago. Jack you and Donna showed us such great hospitality over the years on your boat including inviting our gang of friends at Genoa bay onboard for drinks a few years ago. Take blessing that Donna and Lavonne are united in heaven. Andrea and Garry Bellagente

Dear Jack and family, Sending our sympathy to all of you on the passing Of Donna. She was a lovely lady with a wonderful heart, great sense of humour and beautiful smile. May you cherish all the wonderful memories. Marnee and Graeme Lee

Thinking of you and your entire family Jack. Everyone in our family sure loved and admired Donna. We especially respected how Donna set such a great example for so many young people, mentoring them, inspiring them to work hard, live well, and embrace every joy in life too. Everyone will miss her. Sending our heartfelt sympathy to you. Mike and Gayle Stewart-Loutit and family.

Dear Jack and family, I am heartbroken to read of Donna's passing. Just thinking of her makes me smile. She has been a quiet constant in my life, from her parents being my surrogate Grandparents, babysitting Jack and Lavonne to random visits at the bakery. I was honoured to have spent time with her and Lavonne in the hospital, so beautiful your Lavonne. Donna was an amazing support to me when my Dad was sick, her kindness, warmth and friendship, I will always treasure. Beautiful inside...

Dear Jack & the entire Schaddelee Family, We are so very sorry for the loss of your beloved Donna. We will treasure the memories of the times we shared with that lovely lady over the many years. Donna was always so kind, gracious, funny, and just a lovely and caring person, who touched so many lives in such a positive way. Please know our thoughts are with you all at this very sad and difficult time.

My condolences to Jack and his family. I first met Donna at the Dutch Bakery where I worked during my last years in high school. She was wonderful to work with but also taught me how to do a day's work. She was super-efficient while making it all look so easy. Later, we connected via the boating community. She was a real treasure who will be missed.

I am shocked and saddened to hear of both Donna and Lavonne´s passing! I did some painting work for both of them years ago and both such lovely ladies. Condolences to the family

Our condolences to Jack and his family. Donna was just the sweetest individual you could ever meet and always fun to be around. Lots of great memories from around the pool at ORPS and on their boat at Victoria.
