Dear Donna and family and friends,

Am so saddened to hear of your loss and at the same time, so very grateful and thankful for spending so many childhood years with you and your mom. She is the reason I spent my adult life working in human services. All these years later I can remember her feeding me, like another person at the table was fine despite being responsible for 7 other people! Her patience with us as young children as well as teens... I am just so grateful for those years with you, your mom and your family. I have some heirloom brown eyed Susan seeds that were given to me and have newly sprouted. When they go in the ground in a few weeks at the community garden, they will be dedicated to her. Thank you for sharing your mom with so many Donna! Wish you warm karma.
