    My husband, Kelly, and I, as former colleagues at Sheldon Coates School, are truly saddened to hear of Donna's death. We will remember her for her unfailing kindness, her genuine interest in others and her wonderful laugh and sense of humour. The children with whom she worked in Grande Cache were truly blessed and she was a tireless advocate for them and for others with all types of disabilities. She will be missed by so many. Sincerely, Margaret Price

    I can't even think of what to say. All of the "regular" things don't quite fit. Donna will always have a special place in my heart, as I'm sure she will for everyone who knew her. Wish I could be there. Thinking of you all...

    Sending you all much love and hugs as you mourn the loss of one of the most loving women I have know in my life. You would barely be in the door and Donna was making you smile and laugh she had a spirit about her that could be matched by no other. Donna was an amazing friend to my mom and our family for many years. I have so many fond memories of time with Donna whether it was just a visit or her enjoying watching my daughter perform for her and Marv, her laugh was so infectious. God has received an amazing angel and I know Donna will be watching over all her family and friends. Donna you may have left this earth but your intense spirit and love of giving to others will live in all of us who had the great pleasure of having you in our lives. You will be missed every day, love you always.
