I will miss my friend greatly as we have kept in touch since meeting in 1987 when our girls, Jennifer and my Gina, became friends in the first grade & played together. Anyone who knew Donna has to admit that she had a good heart. She fought her battle with cancer a long time and tried so hard to hold on for her family. Our conversations were whenever we could find an hour or two because we both enjoyed "talking." Donna called me her "Alabama" friend and I will absolutely miss my "Pennsylvania" friend so much. God Bless Bob, Jennifer and Tara as they go through the hardest part of their lives today.
