Ma. Gibler is what I always called her even when I would see her out shopping and to me that is who she will always be. Many times Ms. Gibler gave me the only smile, kind word, and hug I would get for long periods of times. Things at home were horrible and she always took time to talk to each of us kids. Ms. Gibler will always have a special place in my heart. 🕊️

I’m truly saddened to hear about Gibby! We had many fun times during our time at Rehoboth Elementary. My heart goes out to sweet Joy and Donna’s family.
I am so very saddened to hear about losing Mrs.Gibler. She was one of my favorite teachers at Rehoboth Elementary School. She absolutely reached many students with her kindness and humor. I know she will be sorely missed.
Donna was such a kind soul and lover of animals. When my son was in the second grade he had a hamsters names HONEY DEW. The hamster bite him and he wanted it gone. Donna took it in and gave us updates on him till he past.
My heartfelt condolences to all who loved Donna. She was a great friend to me when I really needed one and I will ever forget her for that or those moments when she and I got into ‘good trouble’. I will never, ever see the Philadelphia Eagles or green or a pontoon boat that I don’t think of Donna. God bless your soul Donna.
I met you at the Kingston Inn and you became a huge part of my life for so many years. I am so thankful that God brought you into my life. You are the kindest, sweetest and funniest person I know and I so treasure the times we spent together and God knows there were many. This world was blessed to have you and I was blessed to share and make so many wonderful memories with you. I will miss you terribly my friend.
It's been years since I've talked to Donna, but I can still hear her laugh. We spent many summers in Rehoboth and I will cherish the memories. Rest in Peace, until we meet again. Love to Joy and the rest of the family!
