Donna will be remembered for her strong faith and as a devoted prayer warrior. She found joy in life’s simple pleasures—she loved sports, adored her cats, and enjoyed listening to Pastor Jentezen Franklin preach. Donna also had a vibrant spirit; she loved to dance and had a true sense of style. Donna was always caring for others and had a giving heart. Her warmth, personality, and unwavering faith will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
