David Holbrook wrote a sympathy message

“Donna.... thank you for your friendship. I have fond memories of a silvered hair girl running across the Princeton playground and the growing up years of school together. Your humor and intellect were always present. As often happens friends lose touch with one another and that has been my loss. As you may remember I am a believer so I know when you read this you are in a contented place with happiness surrounding you. Peace be with you my dear friend... David Holbrook”
