Donna was passionate about life and enjoyed spending time with family.

Among her interests were bingo, purses, the Steelers, cooking, shopping, and enjoying life.

She was always willing to help others and share her wisdom.

She possessed a heart of gold and was always someone upon whom you could rely on.

Her smile would light up a room, and she always brought love and passion to any event she attended.
