I have two daughters, Dorinda and Jennifer with who you played with. I also had attended school with Donna which wasd ironic when we moved to Weems Street! I am so very sorry to hear about your lose and you will be in my prayers.

None of Donna's family know me but Donna and I have been friends for years. Donna has had a hard life and deserves to finally rest. My thoughts and prayers are with her family. May God bless and keep you all. Kat

Donna was a sweetheart. I had the pleasure of working with her for several years through the good and the bad times. She always had a way of putting things in perspective and she had a way of keeping things light and seeing the humorous side of most any situation. I am a better person for having known her and she will truly be missed.

After reading the previous meaningful notes of love, I can see how much your Mother meant to so many others. She is loved and she is missed.
I know you are hurting. It is a time for grief. Take whatever measure of comfort you need. And know that many are hugging you and holding you up with their prayers.
God Bless You

Kellie,
Your mother was a special friend of mine through her friendship with Marvin Jones. Donna shared conversations, friendship, and love of family and friends with me. Our plan included a trip for her to California in order for me to take her on a personal, up-close and intimate visit to the CBS Studios for a visit with the cast , crew and personnel of "The Young and Restless." :. My sorrow is that it never transpired.Please know that my prayers, love and deep affection for your mother are wtih you at this difficult time.

We are so sorry for your loss. Donna was a wonderful person and will be greatly missed. We were only around her a few times but saw how special she was to everyone. She was so special to my best friend, Kimberly San Angelo, and her son, Braxton San Angelo, both who loved her very much. Through them we were fortunate enough to get to know Donna. Our prayers and thoughts are with you all. May God bless all of you.

Donna was a wonderful friend. I have sit here in the office thinking about the funny things that she would say or do and I can hear her laugh. I talked to her last Wednesday when she was in the hospital and as usual she was asking about other people and if they were doing o.k. She, so often, would put her needs aside to take care of a friend or a loved one.
Heaven is so much richer because of Donna.
I loved her very much,
