Devoted mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, neighbor and friend she will be missed immeasurably by all who knew her.

She was a hard worker who took great pride in her work and she enjoyed making others happy. With her generosity and easy going personality, Donna made many good friends. Her family would like to thank each and every one of them for their love and kindness during this difficult time.
