Dona was a wonderful person. She was so sweet and a joy to work with. She was always upbeat and always had nice things to say in the halls at Lincoln. I know she brought joy to many people. I send my prayers to the loved ones she has left behind, but know that someday you will be together again. How do I know, the Bible tells me so. God bless.
What a wonderful woman. It was a pleasure working with her, Candy, and Mom B at Lincoln Life. RIP, sweet lady. I’ll miss talking to you. Chris
Dona was my partner in the Association Halloween Party for years. When I heard she’d resigned the Board, I realized things were not good, she loved making the bags for the kids that came to the party. She was faithful to the end, a good friend, and even though she is with our God, no doubt, those left here on earth will miss her terribly. I am so grateful she is free from pain but she’s left a big hole in my heart.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Donna was always an exceptionally kind woman. She’ll always be admired and missed.
Dona was the sweetest coworker anyone could have. I enjoyed working with her and her mom too! Rest in peace. Prayers, comfort, and strength for the family!
Dona, You have been a shiny jewel for me since High School. I will truly miss you. God now has a beauty in heaven. I remember things that we had done and just smile. Your smile was infectious. Love you always.
So sorry to hear this – prayers and condolences to the family. I worked with her at Lincoln, and she was a fantastic person – always eager to help, to teach, and to guide. Spent many an enjoyable lunch at Hobby House with her!
My friend I’m going to miss you so much. We were a great team on the job. You will always be in my heart. Rest In Peace! Trina
