To Donna's family, I am so sorry for your loss. I was a classmate with Donna at Gloucester High, class of '61. I remember her positive attitude and being very intelligent. She was working as a nurse in the hospital the night my Father passed away. She was such a comfort to me. I will always have fond memories of her. May God bless Donna and all her family. Donna and you are in my thoughts & prayers. Love, Jo-Ann (Mucci) Cogan
I had the good fortune to meet Donna at the pool at Royal Fitness. One thing that was clear when talking with Donna-she loved her family! She greatly enjoyed the family backyard pool in the summer months. She also looked forward to family get togethers and holiday celebrations in NJ and DE.
May you all take comfort in knowing how much she loved her family.

Robin,Paul and families we are saddened to hear of Donna’s passing. We have fond memories of time spent when our families were together at sporting events, birthdays, parties and for no particular reason. Donna was my walking partner at Green Acres many years ago as well as my boss in the ICU when I was a Unit Secretary back in the 80’s. Donna was a great mother, grandmother, excellent nurse and fun to be around. Hoping your memories sustain you and help to ease your pain. Heaven has gained a new Angel may God bless you all!! Love and prayers Diane and Bill Bush
