We met alittle over 30 years ago then we lost touch for years. I was definitely surprised when I found out you moved in across the street from me. All those years we lost touch with each other, you never changed…you were always worried about everyone else ,even though you had your own problems. I will definitely miss coming over for coffee, ordering lunch with you and having dinner with you and Matt. You were a great friend and I love you. I miss you lots and I know you are looking down on us with comments that only YOU would say.

Donna was a Earth Angel & now she is one of God’s Angel’s. She was one of a kind whom gave all that she had & never asked for anything in return.
