Donna met her future husband in Hartford, Connecticut. They lost touch but met up again six months later in San Diego. David then convinced Donna to marry him. She spent three years with him as a student at the University of Utah, before embarking with him for touring around the world as a Navy wife,
After thirteen years together in different areas of the United States and four years in Naples (Italy), Donna and David moved to Sorrento where Donna could be close to family and the lake. Donna had a love of everything involving books. She especially enjoyed her times with her friends at the Sorrento Book Club and TOPS. Donna was passionate about Christmas, and teaching her great nieces and nephews about investments and finance. Her intelligence and accounting abilities made her a essential partner within her husband's Canadian business projects.
