Keith, my deepest condolences on Donna’s passing. She will be so deeply missed — such a sweet and kind lady. You and I have known each other for many years, it was great seeing you and Donna when she was to different appointments over the last few years. She brought such warmth and light with her. Certainly a different time from when you were in my cafe every morning for coffee! I’ll always treasure the many mornings filled with laughter and easy conversations. I’m thinking of you and wishing you peace and comfort during this difficult time.
