Guest Book
With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Donna Panasiewicz (nee Kokoszka), a cherished soul who filled the lives of those around her with warmth and love. Donna lived in Depew and was a devoted wife to Anthony Panasiewicz for an incredible 60 years. Their bond was a testament to love and partnership, inspiring all who knew them.
She was a beloved mother to her three sons, Kent (Michelle), Darren, and Brian, who carry forward her legacy of kindness and strength. Donna’s light shined brightly through her role as a cherished grandmother to Kara, creating precious memories that will forever be held in the hearts of her family.
Donna was always smiling and brought joy wherever she went. She had a passion for dancing, which reflected her vibrant spirit. Generous and giving, she had a heart of gold and was beautiful both inside and out.
As we remember Donna, we celebrate her life, her grace, and the love she shared. She will be greatly missed but will continue to live on in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to be touched by her presence.
