There are so many things that I remember about "Grandma Donna", as our kids called her. She touched so many lives while here on earth, and meant so much to us.

"Momma Donna" was the best mother in law anyone could ever have. Rex, John and Karen, my heart is with yours and I will miss her too. I already do! Let's stick together and make the best of it, for her. She was a great Mom and taught us all so much. Now she is with Dad and Doug, taking up where they left off. Someday we will all be together again.
