Scott, Dee and Family,
So sorry to read about Donna. She was one of a kind, and you took amazing care of her when she was staying with you. She loved you all so much. Will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.

Sorry to hear of Donna’s passing. I didn’t her know but a name caught my eye in the obit. and it was Arlene and I think her last name was Wilson. I was wondering if she was the one who went to Ray elementary school back in the 1950s. I’m talking about Ray, Minnesota. Her bus drivers name would have been Bobby Brenamen and I would love to hear if she is the one I’m talking about. Raymond

Condolences to the family on Donna’s passing. I knew her while I was an activity aide and she was a joy. Loved to hear her stories and when we took walks would ask her about the flowers and trees. She loved playing cards and bingo. Always with a smile and polite to everyone.
She loved to sit in the courtyard and the covered swing. Exercise was the first activity and occasionally came but always with a smile when she refused.
Pat Earley says
My sincere condolences to the Mostad family. I remember Donna’s kindness and hospitality to me as a young neighbor kid who probably was around too much. I never felt unwelcome and I fondly remember my time spent with the Mostads.
