Donna graduated from Assumption High School and then JCC with a degree in early childhood education while working at Plainview Childcare. She eventually began working in a Dr office which inspired her to return to school and earn her RN degree. Upon graduation she began working at Norton Hospital before becoming a Nurse case manager at a local workers compensation Fund retiring in 2017 due to her illness.

Donna was a dedicated Eucharistic Minister at the cathedral of the Assumption where she was also active in the Hospitality Ministry.

Special thanks go out to the aunts and uncles that spent many hours caring for her and attending to her needs with love and affection. It truly was a labor of love for everyone. We would also like to thank the staff at Sunrise for their loving care of Donna.
