Still missing everything about you, my love. Mark

Going on three long years without you, Donna. Still very much missing you. You were my Princess and my everything, sweetheart. 

Love, Mark

Still very much missing you, sweet girl.

Love,
Mark

Dearest Donna, it is the eve of Easter, 2021. I still think about you many times during the day and night.  I promised that I would love and cherish you until death do we part.  Looks like I lied.  Death has not changed anything. I am still madly in love with you, but I am glad you are in a happier place with your loved ones and the Lord.

Mark



Donna and I were close friends in our church youth group. She always had a smile on her face .  When she met Mark, she had me come spend the night with her the first time he came to her house. She wanted my opinion.  I knew when I met him and saw them together that he was the one for her. 42 years of marriage, what a blessing.  You will  be missed but I will see you again! 

It was just after Christmas in 1975.  Mark and I were walking home at 2:00 in the morning, because we had no one to give a ride from the club about three miles from our home in Flint, Michigan.  As we walking, Mark simply said, “David, I met a girl in Memphis.  Her name is Donna.”  Mark talked a little more, and I could tell he was in love.  Mark had never talked like that about a girl before.

The following summer, 1976, Mom and Dad and younger brother Tim went to Memphis to visit Mark where he was stationed in the Marines.  When they returned from the trip, mom lamented to me, “We went all that way to see your brother and he just wanted to spend time with Donna.”  I guess mom forgot what it was like to be young and in love.

I finally met Donna the week her wedding.  She and her family welcomed us into their home.  I could see in her a kind and gentle spirit.  Later I also saw in Donna a strong will when it came to standing up for what is right and just.

In July of 1998 I was married to Silvia.  We decided to drive to Michigan and we stopped at Mark and Donna’s on the way.  Even though they were given only one day’s notice, Donna (and Mark, too, but let’s be honest - the wife ends up doing most of the work) ... Donna welcome us and gave us their own bedroom.  Right from the start Silvia felt comfortable with Donna.

We have many memories of shared vacations with Mark and Donna.  We will never forget her kindness, and the effort she made to go all out to make things work for the best.  We will miss you Donna.  You are with Jesus now, completely happy.  We are here, with a little empty space in our hearts, knowing that our world was a better place because you were a part of it.

Thank you for all the many years you have been in my life that,s 60 year,s    i love you and will never forget you .Rip  
.                       


I’m so very sorry Mark and to Donna’s children. She was a sweetheart. I remember how considerate she was when her uncle Kenneth was sick and after he passed away. It meant so much to my sister. She’s in Gods hands now and rejoicing with no more pain. May God’s grace be with you all and may she RIP. 

My sweet cousin, your memory will live on through the lives of the loved ones you left behind.  Fly high in heaven.  To the family my thoughts and prayers are with you for easier days ahead.  May God keep you during this very sad time.

I only knew Donna through her daughter Sarah as one of her SBA high school teachers.  I send my condolences and prayers for the family.  I pray for strength and comfort for Sarah and all the family.  Sarah know that you are in my thoughts.

Donna I will miss your smile. To the Grai family may you feel Gods love and
peace in the comfort of His arms.  I will keep you in my prayers.
