DeSantis Family,
I was so shocked to hear of Donna's passing. I found out when I was working at the Stansbury Beach Club. Donna would always stop at the gatehouse to show her ID and we would talk. Just before she would leave she always had her chocolate snowball. Donna was a very easy going person with such a big smile. She will be truly missed. God Bless your family.

I just heard of Donna's passing this weekend, while working at Stansbury Beach Club. Donna was always smiling and always took time out to talk to my children and entire family. She will truly be missed by everyone who knew her at the pool. My deepest sympathy.

Ritchie,
My family just heard of your sister Donna's passing. I am so sorry. It's been nine months since my brother Timmy has passed. All I know is that it doesn't get any easer, you just learn to bare it. You were there for us and I feel so bad that we couldn't be there for you and your family. I will pray for you and your family. I will also say a special prayer for Donna. All of my love to you and your family.

Sorry to hear of Donna's passing. I just found out Monday and wish to extend my condolences to the family. I rode the bus with Donna when she worked downtown. When I got married, she came to my wedding. She was a genuine person and will be missed.

Dear DeSantis Family: My brother and I were so sorry to hear of Donna's passing. I recently seen Donna at the Kids Christmas Party down at Polish Home back in December with her friend Sharon. I commented on how good she looked and we talked about my brother Dave Thomas and Ritchie being good friends. I just found out on Monday, 3/15 and was sorry I could not pay my respects. May it comfort you to know that you will see her again in God's time. Sincerely, Mary Thomas Mack
