I was fortunate to be with Donna at her group home. Very sweet young lady. She enjoyed playing UNO cards bingo and crafts. She loved going on outings especially horse riding bowling are 3 day vacations especially the Dells movies eating out and going to dances. She along with her peers and her parents brought alot of joy to my life. Prayers and hugs to the family.
