Donna you were my best friend and sister. I think of you everyday. I look at our picture everyday. I truly miss our daily conversations. I know we will see each other again. For now you go rest high on that mountain. I love ya.

So sorry to hear of Donna’s passing. We’re distant cousins (Via), I knew her mother Dorothy very well and treasured her friendship. Much comfort to the family.

When I stood there looking at your beautiful face, I realized there was not much to be said at this time and place. As the tears ran down from my eyes, I think about my sister, my friend. I do not know how to say good bye now that our time has come to an end. I will never forget all the good times we shared. Don’t ever forget I love you so much. And one day we will be together again. I miss you Sis!

Uncle Clarence,
I am sorry that I can’t make it to the funeral but know that you are in my heart and prayers during this time. Aunt Donna was one of my favorites and the only aunt that I have ever gone out dancing with. I will miss her.
