Donna we are going to miss you. Your smile was infectious...everyone smiled when you laughed. One day we will be graced with your smile again after our time on this planet is through. It is comforting to know that we already have friends and family waiting to greet us on that fateful day. See you later, Donna. Love your brother, Bob

A Tribute to Donna Karen Fields
By: Kat Foley – April 8, 2009


As you made your way through life,
With your footprints upon our heart,
Through the fabric of our family,
You were woven as a cherished part.

As we watched your fiber tested,
Your challenges became our pain;
When troubles were briefly abated,
Your happiness became our gain.

A perfect part of our family,
You were always destined to be,
A gift entrusted from our Father,
And given ever so graciously.

You taught us patience and mercy
With every vestige of your love;
The time and purpose for your life
Was a master plan from God above.

When we see shall you again,
Our treasured friend and soul,
We’ll rejoice with you in eternity,
Your body, mind, and spirit whole.

Your place is now with Him in Heaven,
And with those who have gone before;
But, you are forever entwined with us,
A chosen vessel, loved forevermore.
