Donna Cumminsky Obituary

Cumminsky, Donna COXSACKIE Donna Lee Augustina Campoli Cumminsky, 63, of Coxsackie received her wings and took her place among the angels on May 21, 2013. Daughter of the late Angelo and Anna Campoli, she was born on October 12, 1949 in Catskill. Donna had a passion for many things including life and being in love. With open arms, she could warm your heart with a single word. She enjoyed being outdoors, interacting with nature, playing her guitar, music, traveling, and creative (videos, animation, restoring old photos, decorating). But the thing that made her the happiest was spending time with her grandchildren, family and friends. No matter how she was feeling, she would always be there when needed, with open arms, a warm smile, and a strong, determined, positive attitude that could not be denied! She was a glowing presence that always brightened those in her company, with a laugh that truly expressed her love of life. She was a happy, lighthearted, honest and understanding woman, freely being the kind of person everyone loved to spend time with, especially her family, and she never hesitated to show how much! She was the perfect example of how to be who you truly are, and enjoyed bringing out the best in others, just by being who you want to be. She is survived by her three children, Tammy Jo, Derek, and Michael; along with her four grandchildren, Derek Jr, Jordan, Mackenzie and Bella Lee. She is also survived by her brother, Angelo Jr, and sister, Valerie. Services at W.C. Brady's Sons Funeral Home, 97 Mansion St., Coxsackie, Wednesday, May 29, 9-10 a.m. Burial at St. Mary's Cemetery.

Donna you were a wonderful person, a great mother-in law, and a very accepting person. She loved everyone no matter what their flaws were. You knew you could always get a hug from her. Tammy,Derek,Mike Im sorry for the pain you are feeling right now, please take comfort in knowing that she isn't feeling any pain now. She is probably having the biggest " tup of toffee" ever while sitting a garden. Sorry that i couldn't be there in your time of sorrow. The boys and I send our love.

Mae, Derek and Jordan
