Donna was a neighbor and friend since living on Cousins Road, Stamford, Ct. She was a beautiful mother to Laurie and Danny, and Laurie was my daughter's first best friend. She called to tell me of Donna's passing for which I am very sad, but grateful for knowing a very special woman.

Donna was a wonderful person, who I got to know during her time living in Boscawen. After many years of losing touch, I was able to reconnect with her a couple years ago, which was a blessing to reminisce with her as well as catch up on our lives! A special friendship! My condolences to Laurie and Dan, and family.
