To Cousin Gayland and Family:
Thinking of the Chandler family this morning as I read Donna's obituary. I became acquainted with Donna through family gatherings & telephone conversations while I was compiling our "Day Book". I always enjoyed visiting with her- she was beautiful, friendly and radiated the love of Jesus. Cousin Gayland (Snip) and family- take comfort in knowing that Donna is now with Jesus. Love to all of you.

My condolences to each of you as you walk through this loss of mom, grandma, friend, sister. I know Mrs. Chandler was special in so many ways. Tammy, my dear friend and co-worker, I know the love between your mom and you was strong and special. Now, there are so many memories to cherish. I'm so thankful your greatest memory is her faith in our Almighty God. What joy that she's in her heavenly home forever perfected. To God be all the Glory. Love and prayers
