Donna was such a terrific person full of life, fun and laughter. She will truly be missed. She was a great mother, sister and friend, I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to know her. She will remain in my prayers as will her family during this difficult time. Try to remember the warmth of her love and her spirit will always be with the ones she loved and those that loved her. God Bless and God Speed. Lori Mikelus

May the merciful God of eternity give perfect peace and comfort to the family and friends of dear Donna. She will be greatly missed!

I knew Donna as a co-worker in the West Bridgewater School system. We worked with the little ones. Donna was a woman of great energy and integrity! She had a servant's heart filled with love. If there was a problem or a job to be done, Donna was there doing all that she could do. It was an honor to know her and a blessing to work with her!

My prayers will continue to go forth for her, her family and friends at every memory of her. God is good. I expect my prayers to join with others and to be answered for us and Donna.

I thank Father God, the LORD Jesus-King of Kings, and the loving Holy Spirit of light and truth, the comforter!

With much love,
Sandra (Sandy Walsh) Brogan

I had the pleasure of working with Donna several years ago. I had the honor of witnessing first hand the compassion and dedication Donna brought to Spring Street School every day. She treated every student and parent with the same compassion, understanding, & respect. She didn't have many days without laughing or make others laugh, including myself. She will be dearly missed by many students, staff, family, as well as myself. Please know that we will always keep her spirit in our hearts.

I will miss your mom and always remember her kind and gentle heart as she cared for her family and friends, Donna will be dearly missed. Jen hold this poem close to your heart. Love you all.

"You cannot say - you must not say
that she is dead, she is just away!
With a cheery smile and a wave of the hand,
She has wandered into an unknown land
And left us dreaming how very fair
Its needs must be, since she lingers there
So think of her faring on as dear
In the love of there, as in the love of here
Think of her still as the same and say
She is not dead, she is just away"

We were so very sad to hear of Donna's passing. She was the assistant in my daughter, Morgan's, Kindergarten class 3 years ago. Through last year, every time she saw Morgan, she would stop what she was doing for a big hug. It made my daughter feel very special. Please be at peace with your memories and know that Donna will always be with you - ready for that big hug.
