I am saddened to hear about LaDonnes passing. I have emailed her a couple times without a response and never thought to look for her until today. I came across this and needed to post even though I am 2 years late. 

I first met LaDonne years ago when I started selling for her on Ebay and Etsy. She would bring over loads of items she has collected and bought over the years. She always has a story to the item. She knew EVERYTHING about antiques and vintage items. She was a bargain hunter and loved to shop! Each week she brought me new items to sell for her. I grew to love Miss LaDonne. She was so sweet and kind. I stopped selling for her when I moved away from Gilbert and remarried and had 2 new babies. They required so much of my time I no longer had time to sell for her. We emailed a few years back to catch up. I will always think of her lovingly :) 

Although we rarely saw each other in the past several years, she has always been in my heart. I loved her dearly - she was a wonderful person.

I knew LaDonne from Peace Lutheran Church. What a special lady! We attended Bible study together and I really admired her faith! I am sorry for the loss you feel and rejoice that we will see her again in heaven someday.

I will miss LaDonne and our sharing times. Life is just too short at times. We'll catch up in heaven. My love and prayers are with you and yours.

I shall always remember my dear LaDonne and how much she influenced me and meant to me. 
I am blessed she was in my life. Her memory will live on in me and all who knew her. I cherish those.

I am so sorry for the loss of an amazing mother and grandmother. 
She was such a sweet, delightful friend and I got to know her for almost 15 years.
We had such fun and adventures to Globe, Tucson, antique malls, auctions and luncheons over the years. 
I will miss talking with her on the phone and her sense of humor and wisdom.

LaDonne was a "miracle" friend to me. I am so saddened by her passing. She was special.

So sorry for your loss. LaDonne was a gentle and wonderful friend. She will be missed by all.

I thought of LaDonne all week before she passed away. I should have called her. You all have my sympathy and love.

LaDonne was my bridge and quilting friend and at our first sewing class, she helped me get my sewing machine to behave when it decided to get the thread all messed up. The instructor had not even a little compassion to assist me. 
We shared many classes in quilting and bridge and laughed over so many things.
We loved to go to Baci for an occasional lunch out - always a treat and time well spent. She loved her family. I shall miss her!

LaDonne was a wonderful neighbor and friend. We will miss her smile and great positive attitude. She told us she knew God would take care of her no matter where she might be. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.

LaDonne meant much to me - my 1st typist and best typist! She did babysit for Amber several times. She was always on of my favorite friends.

I was truly blessed to have LaDonne as my neighbor and friend for the five years I lived in Gilbert. LaDonne saw the positive in every situation and had a great sense of humor. We took bridge lessons from our neighbor, Reid. And this revealed a very bright mind. She took to bridge like a duck to water. LaDonne was one of those people who enriched the lives of all who knew her. I will really miss her.

Knowing LaDonne was one of the joys of my life. She was so gentle, king and full of faith. I will miss her so much.

On behalf of Peace Lutheran Church, I extend to you our deepest sympathies. LaDonne was a source of joy and encouragement for everyone who knew her. It was a true blessing for Peace to have LaDonne with us during our first two years of existence as an organized church. 
It is difficult to face the change that comes from the loss of a loved one. However, we rejoice that LaDonne's difficulties are over and that she is enjoying the victory her Savior won for her. Praise God that she knew the Savior! May He also grant comfort to you all now.

My sympathy for the loss of LaDonne. She was a good friend and I too am saddened by her death, but am consoled by the promise of her eternal life with the Lord.

It was a great pleasure to have met LaDonne at Bible Study. We had a great time and we loved learning about our Lord and His Church. I am having a Mass said for LaDonne in her honor. She was such a blessing to us all.

I was so saddened to hear of LaDonne's passing.  Some of my best childhood memories include time with the Weinland's.  We always knew if the Weinland's were coming for dinner, we'd get to indulge in some of LaDonne's famous apple crisp!  LaDonne was a very special friend to my mom and such a beautiful Christian.  May memories of your mom bring you peace in the days to come.

We had the privilege of knowing La Donne at Peace Lutheran Church where she was confirmed and was a member until her health began to fail.  She lived her love for her Savior openly, and was a blessing to all who knew her.  May God use her life as a witness to family and friends so they too may share in the heavenly joy that is now hers in Christ.

LaDonne was my very special and treasured friend that  I  loved dearly.  I will miss her more than words can say.   She will be in my heart forever. Our love and sympathies are with her family.
