A Reminiscence
YES, thou art gone! and never more
Thy sunny smile shall gladden me;
But I may pass the old church door,
And pace the floor that covers thee.
May stand upon the cold, damp stone,
And think that, frozen, lies below
The lightest heart that I have known,
The kindest I shall ever know.
Yet, though I cannot see thee more,
'Tis still a comfort to have seen;
And though thy transient life is o'er,
'Tis sweet to think that thou hast been;
To think a soul so near divine,
Within a form so angel fair,
United to a heart like thine,
Has gladdened once our humble sphere.

Donna and I were classmates.We always found a joke or something to laugh about.As I read the entries in the guest book,I am not surprised.Her smile,her kindness,her true friendships and her Faith continued throughout her life.We all are fortunate for having her in our lives at sometime or another.For me it was the
60's and 70's and Donna and I learned alot from each other.I am deeply saddened that her life was cut so short but I know that God must need her more.A bell must be ringing somewhere because a new Angel just got her wings.Bless you so much

Donna was more than a niece to my parents and a cousin to both me and my brother. She became a daughter to my parents and a sister to my brother and me when she moved to San Antonio, TX in the late 70's. She was a constant part of our lives ever since I was a child; she always had something entertaining for us to do, and a way of holding out on when the fun would begin. To Aunt 'Nell, Arvernell, and Maryland, our hearts are full, but we know that you are in good hands; his peace and comfort be with you over these next few days and always.

I met Donna in 1971 at Moultrie High School. We were classmates until we graduated in 1975 from Wando High School. Donna was always laughing and smiling. We lost touch, but reunited again at Nichols Chapel AME Church -- and there she was, still laughing and smiling. Ms. Nell, Avernell, Marilyn, Dexter and the rest of the family,take solace in knowing that she is in a better place -- where there is no pain or suffering. Cherish the time you had on Earth with her, and the fond memories that she left with each of you. I pray God's blessing for each and every one of you.

"I HAVE FOUGHT A GOOD FIGHT, I HAVE FINISHED MY COURSE; I HAVE KEPT THE FAITH." TO MY BOTHER DEXTER AND FAMILY,
MS DONNA WAS A BEAUTIFUL, DOWN TO EARTH, AND LOVING PERSON, WHO ALWAYS TOUCHED YOUR HEARTS WITH HER SMILE AND LAUGHTER. IF YOU WERE DOWN OR DISCOURAGED, SHE WOULD TAKE THE TIME OUT AND ENCOURAGE YOU WITH WORDS. WHAT I LOVED ABOUT MS DONNA MOSTLY IS SHE KNEW THE LORD AND WOULDN'T MIND SHOWING IT OR EXPRESSING HER FEELINGS OF HOW GOD BLESSED AND KEPT HER EVEN WHILE GOING THROUGH HER TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS. I FEEL SO BLESSED THAT SHES IN A BETTER PLACE WHERE EVERYDAY IS LIKE SUNDAY. SHE HAS TOUCHED AND BLESSED MY LIFE IN SOOOOOO MANY WAYS AND WILL TRULY TRULY BE MISSED. TO DEXTER AND FAM, REMEMBER, THAT WEEPING MAY ENDURE FOR A NIGHT, BUT JOY WILL COME IN THE MORNING. SHE IS PRESENT WITH HER LORD AND SAVIOUR AND IS NOW FREE. LOVE YA MAN AND KEEP YA HEAD UP BRUH AND ALWAYS REMEMBER, I GOT YOUR BACK BRUH. "SLEEP ON MS. DONNA AND TAKE YOUR REST, WE LOVE YOU BUT GOD LOVES YOU BEST." THIS IS NOT GOODBYE, BUT SEE YOU LATER. RIP....
