I am so sorry for the passing of your mom. I worked with Donna for several years at Principal and will always remember how "fast" she could type. She was a special lady and always had a smile for everyone. Prayers to her family.

So sorry to hear this news. Donna was a lot of fun to grow up with down at Jordan Church. I like that she didn't take guff from anyone. Great sense of humor always nice to me.
