So sorry for our Venezia family as we have lost another. Donna you made the best cocktails at the Venezia parties. Some of my fondest memories were going with my Dad to your house for the annual Christmas Party. Say hi to my dad for me and give him a great big kiss from his baby girl.

Dear Aunt Jo and Uncle Bernie,

My sadness in her loss is in solidarity to you Aunt Josephine and Uncle Bernie. Donna was smart, and caring about others around her. Much to our shock, her life was tragically cut short. She will be missed, and her accomplishments will not go unnoticed. The rewards of Heaven are hers. She will have the love of her brother in heaven and finally hold his hand. May she be an additional guardian spirit in Heaven to you. May she rest in eternal peace in the arms of Jesus Christ forever. Amen.
