September 22, 2009

On behalf of your Great Uncle Mac Carter we wish to express our deepest sympathy for the situation you have been confronted with. We do not know the circumstances that led to that terrible night. None the less it was a senseless tradegy. We have not kept in touch like families should and nothing we say now can change the outcome now but know that we are thinking of you and praying for your families. And to Amber we are thinking of you and your new baby as well.
With our Sincerest Sympathy,
The Carter/Wilson Family

I am so sorry for the lose you have experienced. Donna worked for me at NOHS. I enjoyed working with her and sitting and having conversations about my son and Mason. We always compared stories because they were close in age. She was a very caring person and I never heard the word "no" come out of her mouth. She always went the extra mile and would do anything for anyone. I cannot imagine what her co-workers and family is going through now. My thoughts and prayers are with her co-workers and family during this very hard times.

I will miss her silly jokes and great stories. She was a wonderful person and will be missed dearly. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Danielle and Devin, My thought and prayers go out for you. I loved your mother dearly - she was a wonderful friend and "cousin in law". You kids and her grandkids were her life and joy. The last time I spoke with her all she could talk about was how proud she was of y'all. I will miss her greatly. If you need me, I am only a phone call away. Love, Jann Tate (Lupo)

I only knew Mrs. Donna for a few months, but in that short time she showed how kind and loving she truly was. She will be deeply missed by my family and we will continue to pray for the family she left behind. I have faith that God chose to bring her home to heaven along with her son and grandson together because he wanted them to spend eternity together. I wish that I could have known her for longer, but God needed her more than I. I will never forget her.
