Donna was the most generous, kind, and loving person to everyone she met. Throughout their lifetime, her children were told countless times by those that knew their mom, just how special she was.

Donna’s legacy was the epitome of unconditional love and support that she invested in each of her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. The hearts of Donna’s family are filled to overflowing by her love, and it will be carried with each of them forever.
