Dear Alexander family,

We are very saddened to hear about Donna's passing. She was such a sweetheart and always lit up the room. She would sit and talk to anyone. She spoke a great deal about her beautiful family and how proud she was of you all. Her infectious smile and bubbly personality will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. It was such a pleasure getting to know her.

I will miss you dearly. I couldn't believe that you are gone and last Tuesday at bingo was the last time I would see your smiling face you brighten up any room in the 15yrs I played Bingo with you it's not a time I can remember that you were not smiling. To the family I pray that the Lord in time take away your pain of your lost and you remember without crying
