Donna was wonderful person. She had a hard time after Wayne got killed. But, she had all the Faith in God to help her get where she could get around. My Sympathy goes out to her family friend 🙏🙏. May God Bless you All 🙏

Donna was one of the most loyal people I have ever met. She lived her life with that in mind. A fighter for her beliefs and life. She hung on years after life threw challenge after challenge at her that the normal person would have given up.
I extend condolences to her care taker who was faithful in her care it seemed. You extended her life greatly.
To her son David Shane I hope healing is a part of death. She held love for you as a mother loves their child to the very end. As I know you felt the same.
prayers for her grandkids and friends.

I was blessed to be Donna’s pastor for a few years, and she was one of the first people from the church to visit us after we moved into town. She made us feel welcomed and loved immediately. There were very few services that she missed (Sunday mornings, evenings, or Wednesday nights). We would take hymn requests, and she would always ask for The Unclouded Day (a beautiful hymn I had never heard before she asked for it). I’m grateful that she’s reunited with family who have gone on, and will be praying for her beloved family who are left behind. God bless you all.

So sad to hear of her passing. I was Wayne Coakleys biggest fan and liked Donna so much! The last time I saw Donna was at a Wayne Coakley Memorial Race I walked down to see her and we talked about past memories and the red model car from the 1981 season I built and gave to Wayne. She shared with me how much he liked it and was impressed at how creative I was in what I used to make some of the parts. It made me so happy that she still had it. I helped her up in the truck that she would be riding in and waving to the fans before the start of the Feature race and we said our goodbyes. Thoughts and prayers for her friends and family.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
