She was known as a gentle, sweet, and personable individual.
When asked “What amazes you most?” Donna replied; “How Gods leading is always right”
“So do not fear, for I am with you: do not be dismayed. For I am your God. I will strengthen you and
help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand”.
