I worked with Donna at Main Event and found her to be a joy and caring person. In a world full of people who care about themselves she was the exception and was warm hearted and very friendly. Even after I left the company we kept in weekly contact every Wednesday sending each other Hump Day emails. My Wednesday's will never be the same. I know in my heart that heaven is a much brighter place with Donna in it. Kim Spegal

Jim -
I am so sorry for your loss. Your wife was a very special person in my life. She always came thru for me and made me look really good. I will miss her tremendously. She always brought a smile with her and her professionalism was always at the highest level. We worked together for over 10 years and I never really felt Donna was a vendor yet a dear friend. My heart is very sad that I can not make the service tomorrow as I am out of town but please know Donna will remain in my heart forever!
All my best to you and your family!T
