Donna and I were friends in high school. After high school we became much closer. Our kids played together for years. I'm sorry that we lost touch with each other. Sarah and Matt you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Donna rest in Peace.

Love, Bev

When I think of Donna the very first thing that comes to mind is her infectious laugh!! I became friends with Donna during high school at West Catholic. We had a lot of great times with the whole group of people we spent time with. In looking back at pictures of those days, Donna and Erin were always together-- BIG SMILES. It makes me smile inside to know they are together again in heaven. GOD BLESS...

I meant Donna when we worked together at Olds Manor in high school. I have alot of great memories of her.

She was always so fun to be around.

Our children also went to school together.

I was sad to hear of her death. My thoughts and prayers

are with her family.

I met Donna at West Catholic High School when she was a freshman. We had some great and crazy times together. She was very out going and had a lot of special friends. I am so sad to here that she past away at such a young age. My prayers go out to her and her family.

May Donna Rest In Peace.

I was lucky enough to have met Donna as my neighbor some 18 years ago. She was near and dear to my heart. Our families were very close through the years, Crystal Lake will NEVER be the same place for me again. I just talked to her a few weeks ago...and I am so sad to think of all the memories we will never share. She will always live in my heart.....Goodbye my dear friend.

Donna and I became great friends when our daughters were born. We lived two blocks from eachother and talked every day. Her city chicken was pretty awesome too! Peace be with you Donna.

My favorite memories are growing up less than a block away.Donna always had a fantastic smile and loved being silly.Always could make you laugh no matter what.I always felt a common bond with her because we were born two days apart.Definitly enjoyed growing up close to her.

What do I say, I grew up with this girl. I remember riding our bikes...everywhere. It seemed there was a worn path between our houses, and Pam Clark's (Westers) as well. I won't forget when she broke my nose in Pam's back yard throwing a shovel full of sand at me in a friendly game. Grade school, High School and adulthood, she did try to maintain a good attitude. Love you and cherish our memories forever.

My deepest sympothy goes out to Donna's Family.

I went to Holy Spirit and West Catholic with Donna.

I remeber Donna always laughing, we had many sleep overs.

and ice skating at shawmit hills.

Although we lost touch over the years I still thought of my friends from school.

May Donna rest in peace.
