I knew Donna in high school and remember her as a candy coated fire cracker! Years later I reconnected with her and met her husband Alex. I remember them helping me work on my car, giving me a place and loaning tools to do the work. They were a lot of fun to be around. I had lost touch with her and am sorry to see that she passed. My sympathies to the family. I was very fond of her.
Nancy & Ron & Family,
I am so sorry to hear of Donna's passing - Parents are not supposed to outlive their children. We will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers.
Godspeed Donna - see you on the other side.

Donna and I met many years ago at the state fair. Of course back then there was no internet or cell phones so we would write letters to each other pretty much on a weekly basis. As we got older we continued our friendship when she lived in Townsend and I lived in Cheswold. Our husbands and us attended a Kid Rock concert in Philly many years ago. After her husband passed and she moved to Hartly area I would stop by to see her occasionally. During the Covid 19 pandemic she made sure I had a mask since they were so scarce. I could always count on receiving a Christmas card. I will miss that this year. Farewell my friend.
