Dear family,
I will cherish sweet memories of Sr. Donna from her dedicated ministry with Mercy Franciscan Western Hills/Mt. Airy hospitals. She had a beautiful & caring heart and a sweet sense of humor. I do wish I had kept in touch with her in recent years. May precious memories give you peace and comfort in the days ahead & may her beautiful eternal spirit live on forever in all of our hearts.
Love, peace and blessings,
Chaplain Sally Koester
Sister Donna was so giving to patients, families, and staff. She knew how to bring joy to a situation and lift spirits. She was authentic in service; she was present with others and a wonderful listener. We all knew her knees caused her pain, but she made light of it and remained positive about the situation. What a great communicator she was! She was an advocate for all people. What a joy to have known her. Her dedication to God was evident in her care for all people.
I have known S. Donna for thirty years. She has been a inspiration to me. Her empathy and compassion she showed so many over the years as chaplain at our hospital in Cincinnati. Always smiling and always there for everyone in need. As my Very Important Sister, I will miss your late night calls and our endless laughter. Rest in Jesus arms Sister.
I will always be grateful to Sister Donna for her never failing support to the staff, patients and families of the oncology unit at Mercy Mt.Airy and to me personally. Ruth Bailey RN
