  1. Wow…I am soo sorry to hear this. I have known Doneeta since I can remember. I will always remember her and Alan riding horses. She was a great person.

  2. To Doneeta’s family:

    I am so sorry to hear about Doneeta’s passing. I used to run/hang around with Doneeta, A LOT, back in the late 80’s early 90’s. We lost touch over the years, but I would think of her from time to time and remember all of the fun we used to have. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

  3. Betty and John, my heart and prayers are being sent. Was so sorry when Shanna called to let me know. May your memories of this fun loving, love of the outdoors and precious daughter help you through this terrible time.

  4. “To Doneeta’s family” I am so very sorry for your loss . My heart just broke when I read about her passing. I will never forget the first time that I meet her . From a friend from long ago .
