My deepest condolences on the family's loss.
She was an extraordinary lady. She taught a couple of my brothers when we moved to Donna. I had the pleasure of getting to know her when she came in to volunteer with our H.OS.T.S. kids. Monday morning 8:00. Of course our classes didn't start until 8:30. It was always a pleasure to visit with her. Heaven gained a beautiful soul. RIP Mrs. Coffey.

Dorothy was a legend herself in Donna, especially at FBC Donna. She and her husband Dale were an inspiration to our church, esp. In Choir. She loved our children dearly. We will forever cherish her in our hearts.

Mrs. Coffee was an amazing person and the best teacher I ever had. She taught me so much, but more importantly, she taught me to care for others. May she Rest In Peace! My condolences to her family. She will forever live in my heart and memories!
