Dave & Family,
Words can't capture my appreciation for the support LaDonna provided me over the years. Sharing time with y'all from the Mayor's bike ride, Mini Meets, and even the wonderful graduation party are but a few examples of LaDonna's caring nature. I will miss her.
My thoughts and prayers will be with y'all during this difficult time.

LaDonna will be missed by many people. She was always such a kind person, never saying a bad word about anyone and always with a smile on her face. She was always happy to see me and talk with me and made me feel welcome into her life and her hobbies. I will very much miss LaDonna but will always remember her true kindness towards me and everyone around her.
