It was ashamed that you had to leave us. I had always thought of you as my second mother. Your home was always a place that I could go, while feeling like I was still surrounded by loved. I know that the Lord has you by his side and that you are in a better place. You are greatly missed and will always be loved.
With love always,
Stephen H. Rickter Jr.

Dear Baldonado family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I cant even begin to know what you are going through at this time. One of the things that helps me to personally cope with the loss of a loved one is the thought found in the Bible at John 5 : 28,29 also Ecc,9:5,10 Were we see that are dead loved ones not only have the hope of coming back to life on earth but right now they are only sleeping so they are not suffering any more. It is my sincerest hope that these thoughts will bring your family comfort at this time. Once again I am so sorry for your loss.

I knew Donna Jean when we were children in Millboro Springs and at Millboro High School. She was a great friend. After school at her house with her sister ("Cookie"/Joan) we would play the piano and have "girly" fun.
Seems so long ago.
My condolences go out to the family.

Donna; It was my good fortune to meet you but only after you entered Panorama City Convalescent Center. I cherish our brief friendship, however. You always asked about my welfare when I visited even though you were the patient! I never heard you voice a complaint, only a loving smile. I'll miss you....

Donna, my long-time friend, was a great inspiration in my own fight with diseases that took her down. I do not recall her ever complain about her misfortune. Those who knew her know that she took life with a sense of incredible humor.
I am happy that she is no longer suffering, yet she is missed very much.
Andrea, please accept my deepest condolences.

I am so very glad I came to your mom's memorial, it was so very moving and beautiful. I would love for you to write me(email) and tell me who sang In The Garden. May God continue to bless you , Love Marsha

We sorely miss Donna. She always had a smile, a good word, a joke to share. Her good humor and her desire for others to enjoy life as she did were infectious. She had faith that all would be well, no matter what, and that was infectious too. Donna was generous to a fault, and she always went the extra mile to help. She has been in our thoughts and prayers daily as we look out at the little garden sculpture she gave us as a retirement gift.

Donna made everyone feel like she had know them forever. When she would walk into a room she brightened it up. Her smile and her witty personality will be sorely missed. I admire how she kept her sense of humor until the very end. Heaven is glowing to have such an angel like Donna upon them. Some day I will be celebrating in Heaven with her. I am delighted I have gotten to know you Andrea through your mom. I feel we will have a connection forever. Your mom deeply loves you and is very proud of you. I will never forget the smile on her face the day you were baptized and she told me it was the happiest day of her life! My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family and I am here for you always! Love Tonya

Donna was a special lady. She had a great sense of humour and knew the best way to deal with life was to laugh at its absurdities. She had tact and grace, but when the occasion warranted she wasn't afraid to call a spade a spade. We often discussed the state of the world and agreed that we could surely run things better! Blessed Be, Donna. May you rest easy in Grace.

I took for granted that Donna would always be around. I'm sad to think about all the plans she had made and wasn't able to fulfill. But I'm grateful that she's no longer in pain and has moved on to a better place. This loss should be a reminder to all of us to live life for today, because we don't know what tomorrow will bring. Andrea, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I have many memories of Donna, but my favorite would have to be her giving me that home perm. Too funny!

I have had the privilege of being with Donna in different situations; Happy – like the way she looked when Andrea would come back to Washington to visit, Proud – like the way that felt and looked when Andrea graduated from High School, and Angry – like the way she felt after Andrea and I stayed out way past her curfew in high school. But the way that I will remember her, is that no matter how she felt, she was nothing less than a strong, tasteful, funny, warm woman, and mother who never represented anything less. Our thoughts and prayers are with all family and friends.

Donna and I shared the same birthday which brought about a special bond between us when we worked at Ecology. Only in the past months as I visited Donna at the care center did we become close as sisters-in-the-Lord. One day while praying for her, she just started talking to the Lord as I prayed. In these last weeks my granddaughter and I came to sing hymns for Donna. She let us know which ones she liked AND THEN SANG WITH US. Andrea, you know how your mom loved music. So now as we think about her going home to be with her Lord and Saviour, just think about her singing praises to Him, dancing around in her new body, free from pain.

I will always carry the happy moments of Donna's laughter and staight up thoughts on life, families and southern living. She will always be kept deep in my heart as a WOMAN who saw an individual for who they were without shades of color, race or body size. She lived life her way and celebrated life with respect and dignity.

I met Donna through her daughter Andrea and though I didn't know her very well, I really liked her. I was impressed with the love of life and people she possessed. She always had a smile, even during the darkest times. She was an inspiration and showed remarkable hope and courage. As I plan for the American Cancer Society's 2007 Shelton Relay for Life event, I will keep Donna close to my heart. I made a luminaria in her honor this year and next year I will have another, this time in loving memory. It is my sincerest prayer that Donna is now in peace, no longer in pain and suffering. I'm secure in knowing that she is still shining a light in each person whose life she touched, including mine. In reference to "It's a Wonderful Life", as I hear bells ringing this year I'll know that Donna has earned her wings. My prayers are with Andrea and the friends who loved Donna so much. Remember that her love is with you always. - Lydia -

I loved Donna. She was a great friend, great listener, great gossiper (Sorry M'Donna!), and a surrogate mom. I loved hearing about her kids, especially her baby girl, Andrea. Her zest for life and her love for her friends will be what I remember her for. Her passion and compassion is what she shared and I will dearly miss that. I was lucky enough to know her and work with her for 12 years and I am thankful for the time I had with her. God bless you Donna, you are loved.

I am so glad I got to spend some time with Donna before she passed. She made me promise to take care of a few things and to spread the word about her type of cancer. We made serious amends during several of our visits. I wish we had done this long ago. Andrea, please let me know if there is anything I can do for you.

Donna,
I met you once at the ball fields with your daughter (Dre) and your presence is one that meeting you one time was all it took. Your beauty both inside and out will never be matched and the way you loved your daughter and those close to her was evident. You will be sorely missed and I know you will check on us from time to time. Right now I know people are grieving your loss but they are also honoring your life and what you have done on this earth. I know one day all of us will be reunited and when we do then you and I have a date. (inside with Dre and Donna and myself). I will do my best to look after Dre as much as I can as she is my best friend but she is in great hands with Duane as you already know. You have done an amazing job with raising Andrea to be a woman of substance and strength. I know she will honor your life in everything she does in life as she already does that now. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers as I have done since all this started and I will miss you for not only Dre but myself as well.
Dre,
You know that whatever you need I will do my best to help out in any way. I love both you and Duane and if there is anything you two need then dont heistate to ask.
Love

I'm so sorry about your Mom, Andrea. I will miss her extraordinary way of handling life with humor and grace. Donna was an inspiration and loved by many. Missing her is a selfish perspective, because she's in a better place with no more pain or troubles. Your Mom loves you beyond measure and told me many times how pride she is of the woman you've become. May it help to know that friends are sharing the sorrow in your heart.

My favorite memory of Donna is her dancing and singing in my driveway to the tune of "Louie, Louie" (in broad daylight no less!) at Toby Michelena's good bye party. She was always game to "play" at our infamous Nuke Waste Culture Nights. She will be remembered dearly and forever. Take care Andrea - she'll be fine.

My most vivid rememberance of Donna is at the "Old Chicks" Christmas Party several years ago. She planned a beautiful party for us and brought presents for all in attendance. She floated around the room with her warm smile making sure we all enjoyed the event. Thanks Donna for a job well done. My last visit with Donna was at Panorama, I was there for a week. We had dinner together and it was a special time as always being with her. Thanks for the memories special friend. I'll see you again someday, this I know for sure.
