    Our sincere sympathy to Donna&&single&&s children Robyn and Troy and the Dalton family on the loss of Donna. Her sudden passing will leave a void in your lives that no one can fill. Donna was not only a good friend of my sister&&single&&s but a friend to all our family as she spent time in our childhood home and called my mom her “mom.” Donna was a down to earth person and had a smile and cheery laugh for everyone. She will be missed.
