I worked with Donnie at Dicey. I would ride with her back and forth to work. I remember when I moved out on my own and she gave me her living room suite. She would always give me words of wisdom and great advice on how to be a good mother to my daughter. She was a wonderful woman with a beautiful soul. Sorry for your loss Tyrone and Donnie. She will be truly miss.
