Funeral services to be held Saturday from the Wellspring Presbyterian Church at 11:00 am, with a reception to follow in the Church Hall. Interment in the Little Sands Cemetery.

Donna’s life was devoted to the care of children. She was a Foster Parent to over 60 young children. She served in various capacities with the Prince Edward Island Federation of Foster Families and, with her involvement, brought many improvements to the Foster Care system on P.E.I. An ardent gardener, she served as an advisor and mentor to many friends and relatives. Donna struggled through a 6½ year battle with GIST cancer, never wavering in her hope that she would see another season and get back outdoors. She made a difference.
