Always loved a good conversation with Donita! She definitely loved all of her family. I know she had a strong faith and is now with our Lord, Roger, AJ and all the ones she loved! Love, Blessings and Peace to all of the family!

We first moved here in 1986 and a year or so later we were asked to be the college and career directors at Rosemont Alliance church where we met Donita, Roger, Brad, Carrie, Darlene, Paul, Rob, and Tami. They have been such a huge blessing to us all these years and Donita’s beautiful smile, genuine kindness, and vitality was contagious. Much love and praying for the loving arms of our Heavenly Father to surround you during this time.

– Alice and Kent Harrison
