    All of Donna’s family I am so deeply sorry for the loss of Donna. I cannot begin to tell you of the many chariest memories of Donna that June and I have to tell. The times I visited Donna she always had positive memories to share of her family and her friends. Donna was more than a tenant to us. She was a very dear friend. Goodbye Donna our dear friend. All the time I walk out the door and see your apartment I think there’s Donna’s place and how you are doing at your new home and the many years you lived across the street from us.

    I am so sorry for the lost of your mom. I have known all of you for along time. My heart aches for her. She always had a smile on her face. Always sat and talk. I bet her and Mary are playing Yahtzee. You girls mean a lot to me. We grew up together in Poplar. If you need anything please let me no. And I enjoy Brenna working with her and our friendship. May God be with your mom and also with the whole family. Love always Gay (Stephanie) Pennington
