Condolence: At least it appears everybody loves Donna. Seems as soon as we saw her face, heard her laugh, the party was about to start. She always had a story, seems her favorite was walking in the St. Patricks day parade in Ireland--and she didn't just walk it. Her persona had many thinking she was a leader of sorts and treated her that way. Appropriate because she was a leader of so many parties. She once told me that she and Ray walked the cemetary saying their rosary. She observed that everybody else there had a rosary in their hand as well, referring to the underground residents. I hope many can take her advice and try to see the funny side as often as possible in her honor. I think she'd like the party to go on . Donna "you done good" caring for you parents, husband, children, grandchildren with love and humor. She graced the earth with all she had and we're grateful to have experienced Donna's love first hand."don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened" Dr. Seuss.

Condolence From: Mona Zandri - Plummer (CHS '59)
Condolence: Words can't express the sadness I feel at the passing of beloved Donna. Her devotion to her husband, children and grandchildren was stupendous. She was a joy to be around. Her laughter was always contagious. She was an active and loyal member and contributor to the reunion committee of her graduating class of Cohoes High 1959 and an active attentive member of the Cohoes High 1959 ladies luncheon group for the last eight years. she will be deeply missed. Donna brought joy and laughter to our group of ladies and I'm sure that is still continuing in heaven. My deepest sympathy to her family and friends especially to Ray, her husband,her children - Julianne,Laurie, and Edmond and her grandchildren.my prayers and thoughts are with you all. God bless. Love and hugs XOXO , Mona

Condolence From: Connie Jean Snyder
Condolence: Donna was so dynamic and personable that it's hard to imagine how that full-throated laugh and effervescent presence could vanish from the earth. She reminded all that knew her that life should be celebrated and loved ones held close. My sincerest sympathy to Ray, Julianne, Laurie, Ed, and the grandchildren she adored. Until we meet again, Donna, may God hold you in the palm of his hand.
