I got to know Marvin and Donna while walking my dog on Roosevelt Avenue. They were the nicest couple and we became friends very quickly. Donna liked to be outside in her yard and she and my dog took to each other right away. She walked beside Marvin while he rode on his motorized cart for an outing in the neighborhood. I miss them both but really enjoyed what time we had to be friends. Heaven is home to two very special people now.
So sorry for your loss.
She was such a kind person and I remember her being so helpful to my Mother . Her Church family will miss her .
