Dear Donna, It’s hard to believe that you have left us, and it seems like just yesterday that we were working together. I loved your beautiful smile and the way you spread happiness and laughter wherever you were. You will be sadly missed by your family and everyone who has had the pleasure of knowing you. My sincerest sympathies for your family.

Donna I'm pleased to have had the privilege to have worked with you and enjoyed the after hour drinks etc. Never knew what was going to come out of your mouth, but we loved that about you. Make sure you catch up with Ngaire up there. Fly free beautiful, we miss you down here already xx

We were so sorry we couldn't be with you all in person, but watched the beautiful send off for darling Donna from Texas. This is all still so hard to believe, but believe it we must! Watching the crowds on the video and hearing all of the testimonials, it's obvious that Donna positively touched the lives of so very many people. She will never be forgotten and will live on through each and every one of us. Much love to Brendon, Ashleigh, Luke, Auntie Maria, Paul, Hamish, Phil, and Colin Claire

Dear Donna you will be sadly missed, I still can’t believe it, working with you in the Papanui office was the most fun of my 31years at MSD! Such serious work we had to do but you always made it fun! You had such a wonderful aura around you! It couldn’t be missed! Laughing and joking and naughtiness sharing stories and hearing about your lovely family! You were that little bit of sunshine for me every day! Love to your family. Claire

Dear Aunty, This picture you sent me sums up the mark you left on our lives. We will remember you in every smile we make. Until next time x

dear Donna, my gosh I cannot believe you're gone. Although it was many years ago, it was an enormous laugh and pleasure to have known you and was great to reconnect a few years ago on FB. I was actually looking forward to catching up with you again next year as we're returning from OS soon. You were such a lovely person. My heartfelt condolences to the Martin family, Brendan, Ash and Luke.

Dear Donna, I am Shocked to hear the news and just cant believe it. You were such a lively person with a beautiful soul that everyone loved at work. So sorry I can’t be there for your send off in person. Heartfelt condolences to your husband, kids and all your family.So sorry as I couldn't attend your send off in person but am attending the live stream.RIP Donna.

Gutted I can’t be there for your send off Donna. You are a unique bright shining beautiful soul that people couldn’t help but love. So many memories etched in my mind. Sincere condolences to Brendon, Ashleigh, Luke and all your family. No words, RIP Donna xx

Donna, you are at peace now angel. You were the life and soul of the party and lit up so many lives. It was devastating to hear of your loss and it's very hard to accept. Fly free and may your spirit have no shackles.

Donna we worked together in Blenheim, Stoke and Richmond offices. Your sense of humour is amazing and your names for different body parts just astounding. I learnt so much from you. The road trip to Westport in 2001 with others from our office was so much fun and Westport was never the same. Rest easy my friend. I know your life On earth was troubled And only you could know the pain. You weren't afraid to face the devil, You were no stranger to the rain. Go rest high on that mountain.

Dear Donna we miss you so much, you are a beautiful person and I will always be thinking of you, you made me laugh so many times I can still her your witty jokes, now you are an angel in heaven flying, love you dearly. God bless all of your family.

As friends of Phil, and knowing Pierre met you in Auck going to concert, you will leave a gaping hole. I hope you find peace you were no doubt seeking or at least an end to your pain.
