To John, Connie and David,

I am the daughter of Bobby and Ursula Leonard (my 'original' name was Pats Leonard), who were very old friends of your parents. As a child, I grew up thinking of Donna and John as cousins. Every year or so one family or the other would travel the 'enormous' distance between Bethpage, NY and Middletown, NJ to visit. Your mom and dad were our 'Aunt Connie and Uncle John.' The last time I saw Aunt Connie was at my sister Connie's (guess who she was named after!) wedding. Uncle John was at my mom's funeral. I remember Donna and John very well (sorry, but not so vivid memories of Connie or David--maybe met you once when you were babes--but not sure). One of my earliest childhood memories (I was probably about 4 years old) was taking the bus (no kidding)to John's 'christening.' Your family lived in Hollis then, I think.  I am so sorry to hear of Donna's passing. I wish you all the best.'The days are long, but the years are short.'

We at StepOne Systems are shocked and very much saddened to learn of Donna's passing.   Our sympathies and condolences go out to her family and friends.   

Each of our projects with Avis was always made easier and more efficient for both companies by Donna's involvement, and with her help.   Even though we only “met” Donna on the phone and in email, she made our professional lives more rewarding.  

We will miss Donna.

So sorry to hear of your loss. Donna and I worked together, for Avis at LGA many moons ago.
They were good times for us, and I have  many fond memories of her. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

To the Masterson family, I knew Donna from working at Avis Rent A Car... all I can say is much to young, much to young!!! RIP  Donna Materson...rest in peace......GODS SPEED!!! Regina Ressegue

Dear Connie & Family, my sincerest sympathies.  Donna's inherent kindness and friendliness, along with her warm smile will always be remembered. Donna, RIP

To the Masterson family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss.
We have many fun, family memories with Uncle John, Aunt Connie, Mrs. Masterson (babysitting us) and of course you 4.  At this time of sorrw I do hope you can find a "Given" story to laugh and remember the good times. My thoughts and prayers are with you.  Fondly, Cindy Given Ariosa

Donna, you were more than a friend you were my family.  It doesn't seem real yet.  Though my heart is heavy, I am thankful that the suffering is over and you are in a better place.  Hopefully sharing a bottle of scotch with Joe at a Casino.  You will always be with me, Today, Tomorrow and Always.  I will always treasure our friendship.  Connie, John, David hoping memories that you all shared together get you through this dark time.  
Donna Wanna.............RIP

To the Masterson Family, sorry I won't be their to comfort you all and share our family memories, with you, at this time of sorrow.  I keep going over all the good times we had growing up.  The Given and Masterson families, had so many good times together, but this is one of our sad times.  Donna was so good about visiting her Godmother, here in Florida, when she came to visit our mother.  You will all be in my prayers and thoughts, at this most difficult time.  Love, Barbara Given Magee

I knew Donna to be a kind, generous, and loving person. The kind of friend that walks in when the rest of the world walks out. That's how she'll be remembered.
