Dear Mr. and Mrs. Schade, Al, Joanne and Gary, I was very sorry to hear about Donna’s death. If I could go through my school years again, I wouldn’t change a thing, Donna was a great friend and I have such fun memories of us all together. Thoughts and prayers are with you and your families.
I grew up on the 1100 block of Birch St., 2 doors down from Seth and Donna. She was such a great person and was a great neighbor. My deepest condolences to Seth and the Schade family.
To all of Donna’s family & friends,
I just heard the sad news from my Mother & I’m shocked!! My entire childhood was centered around our friendship & even though we haven’t seen each other for years..I feel her loss deeply. Having read all of the above condolences it sounds like nothing has changed about my dear friend. She was always a wonderfully fun & caring person!! I am truly sorry for your loss.
