Dorinda, my heart goes out to you. We talked about this often at the Legion. She was a strong young lady who didn’t know the meaning of the word “quit”. I often marvelled at her will and her strength to carry on. She was special and will be missed. Take comfort in knowing that she is now in the loving arms of her dad.
Rev. Dr. Peter Judge
Dorinda, David and family, it is with great sorrow that I learn of Donna’s passing. I know that no mere words can express the heart felt sorrow that you know feel, but maybe knowing that others share your pain with help ease yours. Donna will always be remember by those that knew her. I pray now that she is dwelling in the house of our Lord and looking down on you and her friends.

Dorinda, Ronnie (Nun), Eileen and all your families…I am so very sorry to learn that Donna went to join your husband, Dad in Heaven. As much as she was loved here on this earth, and she was loved, just remember she will always be with you and watching over you all. Eileen, I know she went to see Our Heavenly Father at peace knowing you were there with her and making it so much easier for her. Her heart had the biggest amount of love it could handle. Just want you to remember that and hope that knowing how much you were there for her will keep your heart full of love and contentment in the days ahead. Love you all, and know I have you all in my prayers always. xo

Dorinda and David: There are no words to express one’s feelings when you lose someone like Donna. I did not know Donna personally, but seeing the pictures and video, I remember speaking with her at times and remember her smile and kind nature. She had a difficult time dealing with health issues. She had so much strength that we will never know how much effort it took for her to keep going. We should all be blessed by her spirit. My sincere condolences.

I sometimes think about the first time I met our Donna and smile, it was when Nun took me to his place and left me in the car and out came Donna with the biggest smile and said to me “That’s not right that he left you setting here hi my name is Donna and I am Ronnie’s sister ” well I don’t think I ever thanked her for making me feel welcomed at that time but I know that I thanked her for showing me what a REAL HERO is because she is mine and no matter what goes on in life I will remember the strength that was in her face when she said it was time to go and I had the honor to hold her hand until the end and I will ever be in awe of my sister-in-law..”.but Donna I just smacked my gum and you can’t yell at me “lol RIP my Hero<3

Karen and I are sending our love to you and i know Donna would not want us to be sad but to know she is in a better place and free from pain and suffering.
