Dear Bill, Debby, David, Steve, and Mark,
I have such wonderful memories of Donna. So many of them center around Gideon meetings...especially those in Glorietta. She was so very gracious in every way. I know you will miss her. I know she loved her family Praying that the Lord will bless you with His peace. My prayers and thoughts are with you.

So sadden to hear about Donna but she is in that heavenly place called "home". We are thinking about all of you.
Build My Mansion
(Next Door to Jesus)

I have no castles, no earthly kingdom
but my cabin will do 'til I get home.
My mansions yonder on the hills of glory
Oh, I hope my mansion sits near God's throne.

Build my mansion next door to Jesus,
And tell the angels I'm coming home.
It doesn't matter who lives around me
Just so my mansion sits near God's throne.

My parent's mansion may be close by me
across the golden avenue.
They were the first one's to teach me of Heaven
and the very first one, Lord, to tell me about You.

Build my mansion next door to Jesus,
And tell the angels I'm coming home.
It doesn't matter who lives around me
just so my mansion sits near God's throne!
