It is with deep regret I hear of Donna's passing. We have been best friends since childhood and always kept in touch. Donna spent most of her holidays with her grandparents at Arnes which gave us great times to spend together. We loved to hear her sing on the radio and later on television. Donna was a very friendly, cheerful and happy person, and a wonderful friend! - Posted by: Grace Moore (Life-long best friend) on: Mar 13, 2016

Dear Friends, We loved and appreciated your dear mother and father and are saddened at your great loss. Donna's mother was a lifelong close friend of our Amma Teenie, as Donna was for our mother, Grace. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-14 "And now, dear brothers and sisters, we want you to know what will happen to the believers who have died so you will not grieve like people who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus died and was raised to life again, we also believe that when Jesus returns, God will bring back with him the believers who have died." We are sorry not to be able to be with you at the memorial service for your mother and grandmother. Our prayers and thoughts will be with you all. - Posted by: Dwight & Marian Moore & Family (Close family friends) on: Mar 12, 2016
