Deb;
I just heard that your mother passed away. It's difficult to know what to say during times such as this; but our only strength is knowing that she is no longer suffering.
Donna and I had some fun times together, when we sat next to each other at work; especially when I would pull pranks on her! ;-) I am sure I enjoyed those pranks more than she did.....
I am sorry that I won't be able to make it to the funeral, but please know that you are in my prayers.
Beth (Thornburg) Meredith

To Donna's family,
My sympathy and prayers to you on the loss of Donna. I grew up on High Street next door to Donna, Margie, Gerry and Adda. She was such a sweet little girl so good to her brother & sisters and fun loving too.
Sincerely,
Barb Daniel Ketelaar

Deb and family, I remember your Mom when we were Girl Scouts. I specifically remember the skin and make-up class we took with a Jafra consultant. All of us girls wanting to leave the make up on and the Moms were like, oh no, that's coming right off when you get home!
I am so sorry for your loss and I pray the good memories help to ease the hurt.
