I first met you in 7th grade. I was the quiet, new girl in school and you were full of questions and quickly made me feel welcome to IPJH. Your smile was infectious! Everyone loved you. You were a character! The last time I saw you, you were in Asst. Mgr. training with Chris and I heard your voice in the store one day. I knew right away that it was you, 15 years since we last saw each other in high school, but I never forgot your voice. That beautiful laugh! I´ll never forget that beautiful laugh. When I´m there some day, I´ll hear that laugh and know right where to find you.

This upcoming week 4 years ago Heaven got an angel that was truly one of a kind. All the times I would get myself in a mess and Ladonna would always come to the rescue and say "I told ya so". You are still an inspiration to me to this day and there needs to be more people like Ladonna in this world. Ladonna is a great friend and will never be forgotten.

Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us everyday.
Unseen, unheard, but always near, still loved, still loved, still missed and very dear. -Unknown

Ladonna was the kind of person that never met a stranger and always made everyone feel welcome. She was the kind of person you felt you knew your whole life.
She was sensitive, yet tough when she was standing for things she believed in. She had a smile that would light up the room when she walked in.
Ladonna will be missed.

August 29, 2016

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

I'm still in shock over the loss of LaDonna! I worked with her for several years at Walmart. LaDonna touched my heart in many ways. While adjusting to the new store LaDonna always made sure to make me feel special! She never met a stranger and befriended all she came in contact with. You come in contact with many people as you travel this road of life. LaDonna is the person you cross paths with and she leaves a part of herself with you I will always remember you and miss you. Much love to your parents who must be so proud of you! My heart breaks for them. Much love and prayers to the Johnson Family! So very sorry

Ladonna was one of the friendliest, most outgoing, caring and loving people I knew. She lit up a room with her laughter and joy. I saw her frequently at many Iowa Park activities over the years and she would shout "Mrs. Biddy" and give me a big hug.. She and Jesus will be great friends in heaven and I will miss her dearly. I will see her again someday and get to hug her again. My love and prayers go out to her friends and family.

It's still hard to believe my friend is gone!! :'( Ladonna was my favorite mgr. at Walmart. She made it fun when she was around! The thing I liked most about her was the high kicks she would do and then laugh about it! :) I mean it was kinda funny. She was outgoing and very bubbly. I'll never forget the memories we made together at Wally world and outside of work. Working with her was great but, getting to be her friend was a privilege!! I'll always cherish the moments we spent together. Ladonna, I will always love and miss you! You'll be in my heart forever. R.I.P my friend.
Love,
Robert
