I remember Donna from over 50 years ago when I was dating my former husband and as a young married. She had a great smile and dimples. When my son was hurt and ended up in the hospital where Donna worked, she came to see him, making sure all was okay and wanting to know if we needed anything or had any questions. When I think of Donna I think of commitment and family. May she Rest In Peace.

So many fun memories. I could always call and ask "what time is dinner"? You would always have one planned! Camping, shopping, fish fries, and hair coloring...we had fun! Lost touch these past years, but the thought of you has always brought a smile to my heart! The world you have gone to is now a much better place with you in it. Rest in peace. Til we meet again. With love, Judy

Bev Sturgeon left a message on January 17, 2022:
I have many memories of Donna. We were neighbors on Oak Lane. One memory was Donna’s love of shopping and finding a bargain! We spent many hours hunting for said bargains at Northridge! Another memory was surviving the ice storm of Spring 1976! Five days without heat, electricity and water. Maybe that’s where she got her love of camping. Mostly good times. Rest In Peace dear friend❤️
