Dona,

Life.....so fragile, Loss....so sudden, Heart....so broken,...in the wake of such a loss, we are haunted by things we dont, and may never understand. Yet the solace we seek may not come from answers. So we look for comfort in the belief of love's everlasting connection. May that love lift you and hold you close, and give you peace.

May the peace which comes from the memories of love shared comfort you now, and in the days ahead...and take comfort in knowing there is one more angel above us. Dona, please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Sharing your sorrow,

Dear Dona, I can't find the words to say. I learned from you and Dan what real love is and what wonderful friends you are to everyone. Being a part of your "Pal family" was like a real family to me. I found true and honest friends in you and Dan. I am very sad that I never got to meet Dan but I hope I will get to meet you. You are in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless you and your family. Dan is at peace and he is watching over you. Love ya, Pat "care"

Dan was a wonderful man and everyone was attracted to your room because of the wonderful Love you two share, it radiated so clearly to everyone who knew you two. I know you knew then just how blessed you both were to be able to have found one another.
You made Dan very happy, he was very lucky to have you and you him. I know he will always be with you that's the beauty of the gift of love you were both given.
Take Care of yourself..God Bless you and I ask God to give you strength in your time of need. Love you Dona,

Dona and Family;
There are no words to express how much a loss this is for you. Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal. Will carry Dan's memory within my heart forever, he will be sorely missed.

Dona please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. May you also know that I am always here for you any time day or night.

Just Call On Me

I can’t comprehend just how sad you must feel
For the loss of someone you love.
This sorrowful time must still feel unreal
And you’re looking for strength from above.

I hope, from my heart, that your pain will decrease,
That your spirit will gain strength again,
And I pray that your faith will create inner peace
And that God will send blessings--Amen.

Till then, if you need me to lighten your load,
I’m waiting to come to your aid.
Just call on me, and I’ll walk down that road,
Until the dark times start to fade.

Deepest condolences, Marsha AKA Dovie
