Condolence From: Jessica Russell
Condolence: My love and heart goes out to Donna's entire family, for you all were her heart and soul! I was blessed and honored to have Donna as a massage Patient for almost two years! I saw her weekly, and I loved every visit. As her obituary so beautifully stated, Donna was a Grandmother to all. She became like a Grandmother to me as well. Her love was precious, and I will never forget the impact she has had upon my life. Jeanette, you are an incredible woman, and I am around if you ever need me for any reason. Donna's spirit will live on throughout her loved ones, her stories and wisdom and life experience will never be forgotten in my spirit. She is an inspiration as a woman, traveling the world, doing what her soul lead her to do. May you all feel the love from her now. She is at peace, and hopes for peace for you all too! xoxoxoxooxox

Condolence: Our sincere sympathies to Leo Jr., Sam and all the family. Leo and Donna were so wonderful and helpful to us when we were first started testing Hunky-Dory Red Angus bulls with them in the late 60's. We watched a wonderful 30 minute tribute to Midland Test Station on the RFD channel just the other night on a show called Special Cowboy Moments. Leo Jr. did a great job narrating it and it was great to see him again and the many changes at the test station through the years. Our hearts are heavy for you all.

She was always curious about our lives and sharing her life with all of us. She traveled the world and loved being with her family.
