8 Aug 2019I am so saddened to learn of Donna’s passing. My heart is broken but knowing she is in heaven rejoicing and is no longer in pain is so comforting. One thing I knew about Donna is that she loved her children more than her life! Every time we got together her face lit up when our conversations included Shelby & Bailey. She adored them like no other mother could. With tears in her eyes and a heavy heart she would talk of not being here for them one day and how they would cope. We would just sit & cry together in silence. I love you & miss you Donna but will see you in heaven one day!
