Donna was a second mother to me. I was blessed to have worked with her when I was still in Social Work. She was the type of person you met and knew they would change your life. She saved me so many times. Donna was the definition of a good person and a caring person. I wish the world had more people like her.

Donna was my wonderful friend for the past 17 years. We were hospice social workers together.
If anyone had a straight ticket to heaven, it would be Donna. She was a warrior, and she had a heart of pure gold. We´ll never know all of the people whose lives she touched.
It´s hard to imagine the rest of my life without her in it.
Rest in glorious peace, my friend.
Love from "the other Donna."
