My amazingly loving loyal WWW Neighbors Alan & Donna made time to know others like my family. As a young couple of 5 kids, they both taught me so much! The most highlights of our neighborly friendship relationship was there words of wisdom with actions: 1) really appreciate life all areas, 2) have tea/coffee time or wine to enjoy each other's company while relaxing in this beautiful world, 3) pray pray pray, 4) give love every minute & 5) just be there!!!

What did I learn from Donna? I learned to be thankful for my life, appreciate the blessing of a good husband, and to be patient. She was grateful for her life, she loved Alan, and sometimes there is nothing you can do about a situation we have but to wait and be patient.

First time we met, moving from CA to IL Alan & Donna greeted us with the utmost loving joyful kind-hearted welcoming spirit!

Just arrived into our new home on the driveway, we see you outside of your home. Then you, Ms. Donna walked over toward us. I was thinking please God don’t let her fall, she looks so tiny fragile yet so lively & excited!

You & Alan greeted all of us (5kids, spouse & I) with hugs & kisses & stated that we brought the California beach sun! With your tight hugs & kisses on cheeks made me feel my birth grandparents' love! From that first impression that I knew from my heart & soul hit home for me. Plus we’d be the best neighbor for ever & we connected through our past experiences & our life journey.

Ms. Donna, like your spouse Mr. Alan, you’ve been incredibly amazing to my family & I. Forever you’re both my parents I always wished for & wonderful grandparents to my kids. Joseph & I are working hard & doing our best to give our kids our time, love & adventurous exciting life! Thanks to you both & God’s unconditional love from both of you & everyone in this world.

Ignatius no longer calls you Grapa & Alan Grama. He loved just hanging out outside with Alan & me having tea/coffee with him. I loved having tea time & our prayer time inside/outside of your stunningly peaceful home! JoJo is still quiet & both boys love playing soccer! Having the soccer balls go into your yard & street plus cars popping them was scary to hear! Emmylina loves dancing & smiling at you coming home after school! JoJo & Emmylina selling Girl Scout Cookies & Cub Scouting Popcorn/Chocolate Bars then both selling Boy Scout Wreaths & you’d donate for scouting just because! Ketali loved walking & she'd greet you both while you gave her time to run outside to hug her & asked how her day was! Lailah was shy yet was comfortable in talking whenever you'd have conversations with her & give her encouragement.

You’ve made a big difference for my two older kids. Lailah flying her wings to her own young adult life journey & babysitting many babies including her sister’s twin boys & still love her makeup like you do! Ketali keeps working hard on her USMC trainings for her earned promotions as Corporal while raising her twin boys Amenidel & Azriel. Thanks to Alan & your words of wisdom, encouragement and heart to heart talks with her!

Although you saw Azriel in person, you still heard Amenidel at your front door & just being at your yard we feel your love & presence. Twins' Baptismal will be Oct2020 during their 1st year Birthday Celebration! Thank you for everything! I ride my bike for both of you & for many. We love you so much!!!

Our WWW Neighbors endlessly love you so much & infinitely you’ll be missed! We’ll forever cherish your good charismatic selfless caring awesomeness sense of humor motherly-neighbor relationship!

Sorry I can’t be there . Donna was a favorite person not just a client . I looked forward to her visits and when she couldn’t get to me I asked to come to her ! She always made me feel like I mattered and she just loved people . She’ll be missed and remembered .

We met in a local Zumba for Seniors class. We laughed at ourselves and each other as we danced and jumped to the music! That was the start of a great friendship! We loved to go to Chicago, to lunch, take walks and hangout together. We talked about everything from correct texting to our love of our Lord, Jesus Christ. We had so much in common. I will miss my friend. I miss her always coming up with new places to visit..
I think that she had a list!! I miss her sense of fashion. I miss her stories about her family. I miss her hugs! LOVE ❤️ you, girlfriend. Rest...no more pain. No more sorrow.

Donna, my forever friend. So many thought we were sisters. I believe in our souls, we were. I’m left without her, but the hole in my heart is there forever. May the precious family she cherished, bring them peace, and love, knowing that she and Alan are together again!❤️
