Er branden 298 kaarsen


Donna touched us all with her warm heart, bright smile and beautiful personality.

What will we remember most about Donna?  Her humor , her kindness and sincerity and her general belief that everyone is good and means well. 

She had a great love for music, playing drums and coloring. She had about a 100 coloring books.

She really enjoyed food, but was not really partial to vegetables although she did take a liking to asperges recently.

She also liked doing crochet, she started on scarves for a colleague’s daughters in 2017 but never finished them as Donna always wanted everything to be perfect and thought that what she created was never good enough.

Her drive was something everyone admired. She moved from California to The Netherlands on her own and mastered the Dutch language in no time without following one course

Donna’s death was sudden, but her life was not faint. Her memory will always be with us.

We will all miss our friend dearly and are grateful for having known her.

Please be so kind to write your messages in English.
