My condolences to the family. I know she was the centre of your world. Donna and I met in High School and have been friends ever since. I would love to have spent more time with her but the time we spent together was so cherished. God Bless
Dear Joe and all your family. Our deepest condolences to you and family. Donna had a smile and laugh that was so heartwarming. A lovely lady. Our thoughts are with you. Pia and Chris West
Such sad news, and my condolences to all of her family. I will cherish all the wonderful memories I have of her growing up years. A good friend and a pleasure to always be in her company. She will be missed.
Condolences to all of Donna’s family and friends. I will always remember Donna’s sunset date as it’s my birthday. We celebrated so many wonderful events together since 1972 when we were at Glanford Elementary School and then throughout my time at Saanich Baptist Church. Thank you for being there when I was baptized Donna. I loved our Ladies Bible studies and craft days with Lorraine. You were supportive through my pregnancy and enjoyed cheesecake nights at my house with Lorraine, Christine and Esther. We’ll see each other again soon my friend.
I remember when we first met Donna. What a beautiful smile and so full of laughter. She always welcomed our son hanging out with her kids. Working with her on so many events at Saanich Baptist was truly a joy. She will be missed by our whole family and we continue to hold all of you up in prayer.
I’m so sorry for your loss Joe, may she be in God’s embrace and resting in peace. My sincere condolences to you and your family. ❤
