Be at Peace, dear friend.
 
There are not enough words to express my deepest emotions. I will simply share my favorite quote that seems to fit Donna, oh so well.

When she shall die,
Take her and cut her out in little stars,
And she will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night,
And pay no worship to the garish sun.
William Shakespeare

A light has gone out in my heart that will never come on again. Yet, I know from the bottom of my soul that you are with your cherished brother and parents ... and finally, out of pain.

I love you dear friend. Safe travels, 'til we meet again. cheloni

Donna is now surrounded by more love than she has ever known, and will be waiting to welcome you with such a joy for having been her friend. Take comfort in knowing that.

This is a very sad day in TV.

Donna, You will be missed.

Oh Chels, this Shakespeare quote is beautiful. Thank you for sharing it. If you run outside right now you will see the moon, Venus & Jupiter together in the Western sky. I think they're little stars of Donna.

So sad, so sad.

We only met in person a few times but she had a great spirit.

She will be missed.

RIP Donna!

The first time I met Donna she was with 07 at the time clock at Lake sumter landing .........We were trying to find the web cam so we could wave at friends at a certain time..........I will always think of Donna when I see that clock..........She was a very special beautiful girl that could and did light up a room ..............

Goodbye Donna , see you at the clock !!!

The great fumar doesn't feel so great today........

Another angel got her wings
 
Donna's beauty would turn heads and then her personality would charm you.

A really wonderful person's life was over far too soon. You are missed Donna.

RIP dear Donna!
I'll never forget the chat room and the fun at Crispers!
We know you are in a much better place and pain free!
We will see you again someday!

PS Put in a good word for me and F16.

Thank you. I really appreciate this but of course, I would much rather have her here with us. My heart is broken but she would be please to hear all the wonderful things people had to say about her. She was a very beautiful, giving, fair person and we will miss her.

Here is the funeral home's obit for Donna.

redwitch 03-26-2012 07:16 AM

I wasn't going to say anything. Just the thought of Donna being gone is tearing me into little pieces. There was something so special, so glowing about her. Her smile lit up a room. Even on a bad day, she made sure others were feeling good about themselves. Her inner beauty truly outshone her outer beauty and a beauty she was. I'll miss the accidental running into of her while around and about. I'll miss her glowing smile, her kind words, her joy of life. The world has lost a very good thing and the heavens have gained a remarkable soul.

Donna, my heart is heavy for our loss. Drop by once in awhile and leave a smile on our souls.

dillywho 03-26-2012 07:16 AM

I did not have the privilege of knowing Donna personally, only through TOTV. I always looked for her posts. She is missed by many everywhere. May her family and friends find peace in knowing that she is now free of her pain and that she was loved by so many.

Thank you Ed, don't know how you found that but I appreciate it very much. I think a few of us will want to donate to the charity they have requested.

Hope someone will post the newspaper obit on Donna Kerrick when and if it comes out. I guess I did not know her as well as I would have liked. Kind of stay out of the chat rooms on TOTV and other sites. Never sure who I am talking to on those and I like to see what I said.

Look back at post #52 and you will find it.

She will be greatly missed by us but most welcome in Heaven!

Is that the newspaper obit? That looks like the funeral home obit. These are sometimes different.

Thank you for sharing the lovely obituary.

Guess I had assumed Donna was a fulltime resident of The Villages Florida but it appears she was running a business in Pennsylvania. Just surprised the obit did not even mention The Villages at all.

Hopefully, it gave her closest friends time to travel to the funeral.

She's now a fulltime resident of a much better place.....as so many posters have described her as having a beautiful soul........that memory will linger and sustain everyone.

VillagerNut 03-26-2012 08:09 PM

I am so.... sorry about Donna's passing. I will keep all of the family in my prayers. We never know when our last day on earth will be. So everyone should try to make the most of each and every day we are given! God Bless!
