Dear Loved Ones of Donna: I was a classmate and friend of Donna's at Jackson Elementary School. I was shocked to hear of her passing at such a young age. Although I had not seen her in many years, I will always remember Donna for the sweet and cheerful person she was. I remember visiting her at her house on West Street, her letting me have some of her dolls, and also learning how to play the harpsichord with her in third grade for the school concert. She was such a lovely person. My deepest sympathies go out to you during this difficult time.

Dear Moccio Family, It is with great sadness that we recently learned of your loved one’s passing...our families lost our loved one, Betty, the butterfly lady, at Thanksgiving. Donna and our mother had a mutual admiration society going at the Paddock. Donna went out of her way to make sure that everything was just right for Betty and her husband, Julius. 86-yr-old Betty always requested Donna for her table and always slipped Donna an extra tip upon leaving...it wasn’t much, but Donna always made Betty feel as if she had given her a million bucks...When Donna heard of Betty’s passing, Donna cried with us and made sure that we didn’t forget to take something home for Julius! We are certain that Donna and Betty are laughing and sharing stories in heaven. We will always remember fondly, Donna, especially when we treat our Pop to pizza & beer at the Paddock. May perpetual Light shine upon Donna and bring her Into everlasting life...Amen...Most sincerely, the Perschy, the Strauss, and the Wagner families

Dear Kathy, Tom and family,
The Seng Family want to express our deepest sympathy to your family. Watching all of your children grow up on West Street was my privilege, and having you both as such wonderful friends taught me how to be a good mother to my girls. Your family has been through so much, and I can't even imagine your loss for your beloved daughter Donna. Grant her eternal rest, O Lord, and may her family know your peace and comfort. With sincere heartbreak, sorrow and Love for you all. My prayers and hugs go out to you.

To the Moccio family. My deepest sympathies and condolences to your family upon the loss of your loved one. I knew Donna from the Paddock Restaurant. When I came to the restaurant with my family she was our server. She was so friendly courteous and funny. Her personality was amazing. We will miss her also. Remember all the joy that she brought into your lives and to those customers to whom she served.

I met Donna about 25 years ago. She was so friendly and thoughtful. Always had a huge smile and welcome greeting for us. She made going to the Paddock a special treat. She will be missed by all.

Donna was one of the most sweetest kindest ladies I have ever met. She was like a mother to me. She always gave me advice for everything and told me things when I would think wrong . She always told me think before doing. I loved that woman she had a heart of gold. She was always the most helpful when I was pregnant with my boys and she always told me not to lift anything heavy. But I can't o send my condolences to the family. She was truly loved
