So sorry for your loss and Prayers sent to you all! Donna always had a smile on her face and loved her Family and others deeply. She was always a treasure to work with and will be missed! Her and Gloria always had fun at Walmart working together and when something was wrong Donna would cut them eyes at you and give her sneaky smile she had. But never complained just shake her head. She was an awesome cook and I enjoyed Potlucks and especially breakfast! Please keep these Families in your Prayers. Love and hugs to all.💔😢🙏 Darie and Jason Loggains

We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Donna was an awesome lady and so kind! Years ago when I was shopping in Walmart I ran into an old friend who had been through a hard time. After I said goodbye to my old friend I began to cry but kept shopping. Donna saw me and was kind enough to ask me if I was alright. I knew then she was a godly woman and I always enjoyed seeing her. Love you guys and saying prayers for you all!
