The family would like to say a special thank you to the Royal Alex Hospital Ward 5E, and the staff at Foyer Lacombe for their compassion and care for Donna. The kindness shown to Donna by her special friends, Joey Maddison and Ali Sharun will never be forgotten.

Donna was a gem of a person. Such a help with Japanese exchange students. She did a thorough, professional, and conscientious job.
She will be missed.
Tom Steele says
Donna and Wayne were a big part of our St Albert seniors curling for many years. Wayne was the first one who Tom curled with in a Stick curling bonspiel and Donna was right there behind the glass cheering them on…and being their first try at stick curling, they sure needed that too. As a former Saskatchewan kid Tom always appreciated the way the three of them would talk Riders football before and after every game the team played. We were really saddened to hear of Donna’s passing. We know she will be dearly missed by all her family and also by her many friends at the curling club as well. With sincere sympathy for your loss, Tom and Barbara Steele
