Sorry for your loss. Grew up in same neighborhood as Dona. Many fine memories from those days. Her mom would put us all in the car and take us to the State Park fun times.

Noticed the obituary in my local paper and recalled my fifth grade student from many years ago. I always believed you would set the world on fire and leave a memorable legacy.

I had the privilege of meeting Donna a couple of times through her aunt Debbie Falkenham. We were fortunate enough to enjoy an outdoor summer concert and picnic in Colorado with Michael McDonald. She was simply delightful, loved the music and the venue and the company was great. The concert was memorable on a beautiful Colorado evening. I know she brought so much joy to so many people....she surely will be missed by those who knew her.

Dear Aunt Dona,
I didn’t get to spend much time with you, but the memories we made I will always cherish. Thank you for opening your home and heart to me, allowing me to be part of your family, welcoming me with open arms. I hope you are in peace, happiness, and surrounded by love with those who are also already gone. Much love, A.

I pray that she is reunited with her precious son, and that her spirit flies free! She will be held in our memories with so much love!!!
