We’ve Lost a Good Person and Friend

I worked with Donna for many years. She was a fair-minded, efficient, and thoughtful person with a good sense of humor. Underneath a somewhat tough veneer, Donna was a good person and a friend. Rest in peace Donna!

Rest in Peace

Donna and I sang in First Church choir a long time ago. I will miss her very much, she had such a personality and loved to sing for the Lord. My condolences to Dennis and the family. Rest in Peace, Donna. Sheila Knox Brosmore
