Donna was my cousin. Some of my fondest memories of growing up are memories of Donna and me together. I always remember her smiling. I will never forget her.

Donna was a wonderful sister. I will miss her very much as she was taken away from us far too soon. She certainly was a major inspiration for me and for that I will always be grateful that Donna was my sister. I love her so much...
