The minute I met Donna, the minute I knew why her daughter Beth, is who she is.  The best way to describe Donna was that she felt  like home to me. I will never forget in or around 2003 or one of the early 2000 years, Beth and Sam hosted family at their house on Deal Ct.  They had all the kids, grandkids etc  there for the Easter holiday and the festivities began with an Easter egg hunt around the yard. There was laughter and pure excitement mixed in with chaos and noise. It felt like home! I was recently married, new to Va. and my entire family lived in another state. I was missing my own family and had grown up in a family with a lot happening at any given time. There was never a dull moment at my house so being in Donna and her family’s presence made me feel like I was back home again.  It was so comforting to me and as I got to know Donna and her family, I spent many years at their family gatherings and holiday events.  It was obvious how important her family was to her and not a day went by that I didn’t hear of her loving on her kids and grandkids. I could go in and on with stories and moments that Beth shared with me about Donna!  She was a bright light on any given day, no matter the circumstances. I have no doubt that her light will continue to shine. She has shared that light with her family, and it will never dim.  And if there is a version of Life360 in heaven, Donna will be forever watching over her people and reminding them and guiding them back  home! ❤️🙏🏻

My heart breaks for Donna. Taken away too soon. My family lived in VA where we met her. Wonderful person. She will be missed and loved in every heart of the people who knew her. 😢❤️

Donna was a special niece.everyone loved her. She had a great personality and would always clap her hands when she laughed.  Larry was always by her side and Beth would do anything for her.  They were so close. And also her sister Rosemary and Leon would visit her every week.  She will be missed so.much. We love her so much.
