Dear Mom, I still can't believe you're no longer here. I know you've moved on to a better place but I had so many things I wanted to talk to you about. You are gone but not forgotten. Until we meet again I love you

Hugging the family during this time of loss. But celebrating with you knowing she is with Jesus!
Donna was the sweetest most loving person I knew. I was blessed knowing her, and having her as my child care provider, and working alongside with her at the Lighthouse church daycare. Donna most faithful servant of our Lord.
