I just saw this notice and it saddens me to know a lovely lady has left this world. 

You see, she married my dad, Donald Best.   
She was so good to my dad.   She was a wonderful Christian lady. She  is now with the Lord. 

May God comfort all of her family knowing she is at the feet of Jesus.

Very sorry to hear of Donna's passing.
I am her first cousin, daughter of her Uncle Oscar from Iola.  I remember her and Pauline, growing up there.  I am 78.

As a young girl, I learned to play guitar and sing with Dad, Uncle Burton, Uncle Orion at their weekly jams.  I learned to love their harmonies and the old gospel and old-time music.  For most of my life, I have continued to play in groups and museums to try to keep their music
 alive.

Sending condolences.

So sorry to learn of Donna's passing. She was a sweet woman and good Christian friend.  So thankful she is at peace and with loved ones who preceeded her in death. Prayers for the family.

Robin you and your family are in my prayers.  May God continue to comfort each of you during this time.  






What a beautiful lady, inside and out. Growing up she was stern but kind. Very religious and taught me so much about God and family. Traci and I would go to church with her and Don at least once a week and sometimes more than that. 

I remember having to ask her and Don if I could take Traci to a Homecoming dance. They really didn't want her to go but said if I have her back by 10:00 or right after the dance then it was probably okay. 

Traci and I would sit in the  car in they're drive way till 10:05 or until the porch light would go off and on, to tell us it was time for Traci to come inside.

Donna was always smiling and I loved her laugh too. I will miss that. She was a giver, always willing to help mend your cloths or fix a zipper. 

I am a better person because of Donna and I will miss her dearly. She was a blessing to so many and very special person to me. She was my other Mom.
