So sad to hear of Donna’s passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Donna was such a sweet person with great faith. I had the privilege of working with Donna at the City of Rocky Mount and I will always remember her sweet smile! Rest in peace my dear friend!

Harry, I am so sorry for your loss. Even though I didn’t get to see Donna a lot, she has always been one of the sweetest and kindest friend anyone could have. I am blessed to have known Donna.
Donna was faithful in everything she did. She loved her family and especially loved spending time with her grandchildren and showing them off to her friends. She did a lot of behind the scenes things for church, receiving grafitication from serving her Savior rather than for acknowledgement. Her service in the church has been missed during the last few years. Visits with her both in her home and the nursing home were always a blessing as she was easily engaged and eager to find out what was happening in the church and community. I truly believe she is at peace having reached her ultimate goal, being with Jesus. Donna will be missed.
Harry and Brian Nancy and I are so sorry for your loss. Prayers for all the family.
Heaven has definitely gained an awesome Angel.
Harry, I read Donna’s obituary and with sadness and great sorrow I offer my condolences to you and all your family. When paying my utility bill downtown at the drive thru window, Donna would always talk to me about my dog (Kasey-Chocolate lab) who was always in the front passenger seat. Kasey will be (14) years old 121120 and still goes to work with me every day. I often think of the conversations we both enjoyed. I respectfully remain a close friend in life and the here after.
Harry and family, I am sorry to hear of Donna’s passing. May our Lord bless and comfort you and the family during this tragic time of loss. You have my sincere sympathy.
It was a pleasure to know Donna at Seaboard FoodsKraft. She was an excellent employee, always pleasant, and congenial. Joe Gurganus
