I’m so sorry to read of Donna’s passing. As kids, we spent so many fun times together in Wickford, at Acadia park in the summer and on Jamestown. My first trip to Niagara Falls was with Donna and Aunt Isabel and Uncle Frank. There are many special memories. My condolences to you, Joe.

Dear Joe, I am so very sorry to hear about Donna. Despite unimaginable health challenges, Donna was one if the sweetest, kindest souls I have ever known. The epitome of true grace, I will always remember her pretty smile, sweet voice, and how much she loved Bella and Lola. You and Donna are in my thoughts and prayers. May God bless, protect, and watch over you always. Hugs, Chris(Angie’s daughter in CT)
