Donna and I were best of friends growing up in the McSwain area. I am so sorry to hear of her passing. Donna was a wonderful friend and loving person. I was privileged to be at her wedding ! I am sure she is now with her beloved brother Rodney enjoying a great reunion! She will be always in my heart. Donna and Pam Texiera and I were great friends as youth! I am attaching a picture of us in our better days.
