I am a longtime reader of the OVCA Listserve and have followed the story of Donna's noble battle. Imagine my surprise when I read her obituary in my local newspaper in Johnstown. Though she does not know me by name, I do believe I attended a luncheon this past Friday at Sunnehanna CC with Mary Antoinette, her sister, who I also remember as the organist at St. Joseph's Church. (It was a luncheon for retired teachers.)
I am 62 and if Donna...

We will miss you dear, kind ,lady. Your courageous battlling-leaves a hole in your ovarian cancer community. So glad you had your family around to surround you.

Donna, I have a heavy heart writing this. You will be greatly missed my friend. Kings Park will never be the same without your joy, your strength and your courage.

My wonderful friend, I can't tell you how much I will miss you. Your friendship and love were priceless. Lots and lots of beautiful memories.
Love, Phyllis

I miss you, my friend, and am grateful for many wonderful memories.

Awesome lady, our Donna. We will miss her. To the family, my sincere condolences, and my admiration for your communication and courage.

from one whom Donna coached and encouraged.

You gave it such a hard and courageous fight but now you are out of your pain! You have earned your wings!! We all will miss you so much - and will toast you at our SMags luncheons.

To Donna's daughters: You are in my thoughts and prayers during this sad and difficult time.
