Oh I am so sad !!! I met Donna while I worked at Sundstrand in Rockford and her in WLOX. We instantly became friends and shared so many laughs. She worked for Ed and I Worked for Steve Krise. I flew out to surprise her at her retirement party ! She knitted all my grandkids blankets and I would visit with her in CT when I traveled that way as my oldest daughter lives in Bethel CT. I am truly heartbroken we haven´t met in a couple years but thankful we kept in touch. I will miss her
