An avid animal lover and a wonderful pet parent, Donna volunteered throughout her life at various shelters, most recently at the Washington Area Humane Society (WAHS) located in Eighty-Four, PA. To know Donna was to love her. She was a wonderfully kind woman with a beautiful heart, incredible wit, and a tremendous sense of humor. We are so blessed to have had this short period of time with her and we are so thankful for the beautiful memories that will live with us forever.
