    I am saddened by the news of Donnie’s death. She and I taught toghether in Denison High School and became fast friends through the years there and afterwards. I loved her dry sense of humor and her remarkable intelligence. Our love for reading bound us in retirement. I will miss her presence. To her beloved family, I pray for you to have strength and courage to celebrate her life which gave so much to so many of us. She loved you all so very much.

    Cherishing the many memories we have of Donnie Sue. We are so grateful to have had such a special person in our lives. My mom and I went on a school trip to England with Donnie Sue and her students and it remains one of my most memorable trips. Our thoughts are with you during this time of reflection and loss. With love and friendship, Barrie & family

    Dear Kelly & Travis, We are so sorry to hear about Donnie. We didn’t realize she was so ill. I know this is a very difficult time for you. Please know our prayers are with you. We always loved your Mom’s dry sense of humor. There was never a time we were around her that we didn’t laugh. She made life more enjoyable for all that loved her!! Love, Sylvia & Keith McBrayer
