Donna was a devoted housewife and mother who loved to cook and bake homemade treats. She was a diligent letter writer and card sender, and had many pen pals growing up. Donna knitted and crocheted thousands of hats for newborn babies and hospital cancer patients as well as hats for the veterans home and police officers.
She was loved by her family and will be dearly missed.
