I was a resident of Transitional Housing on West 25th Street. It was furnished suites for homeless women. I lived and worked there under Sr. Hawk. It was founded by her and another sister. Sr. Donna is still loved and missed.

It has been a difficult couple of weeks. We are comforted by the outpouring of love and support after Donna's death. She was a woman devoted in her service to God and the underprivileged. We loved her, will miss her, but are comforted to know that she has joined our parents, two other sisters, grandparents, & many other family & friends who welcomed her with hugs and kisses. Til we meet again Donna, all my love to you ~~ your sister, Jessie

Dear Sisters of St. Joseph and family and friends of Sister Donna,
I have fond memories of Sister Donna.
I first met her in the'80s when we were both on the board of The Eastside Catholic Shelter. Our paths crossed at various times when Donna was the director of THI and in her ministries since then. Our last brief conversation was last Sept. when I was on retreat at The River's Edge. Donna always was very supportive and caring. Her concern for the poor and less fortunate shined through in all of her words and actions. I feel honored to have known her.

Sister Donna was a Nazareth classmate who had accomplished so much good in this world. I will miss seeing her at our get togethers. The journey has just begun. Mary Lou Muray

My thoughts and prayers are with you today! My memories are of Sr Donna and Sr Loretta when God put his footprints on the steps of a Travel Lodge Motel on W25th Street and said my people will need a place to stay to get their lives back together. His footprints can still be seen at THI! Peace
