I'm so sorry to hear of the recent passing of Donna. I was very fortunate to have been a life long friend of her sister Alfreda and have fond memories of the many adventures that they had together. Donna was a very giving person who always put others first and her kindness towards others was always appreciated. Please accept my sincere condolences and may wonderful memories help sustain you at this time.
