    Ms Donna, you were always an amazing woman. You were always smiling no matter the circumstance. You were so full of love and joy. Just a beautiful soul. I remember when we were closing together you were eating on a lemon wedge, and I was upset about something that day. You looked at me while I was crying and said “come on girl give me a smile before I stick this lemon wedge in your mouth and make you smile” it got me to smile. I’ll forever remember that. You’re loved and missed so dearly 🫶🏻 I miss us cutting up together and laughing. Remember we took our breaks together as well because we didnt wanna be alone
