Overlijdensbericht en herinneringsplaats van

Donna Rae Gordon

08-12-195318-03-2020

      Donna touched us all with her warm heart, bright smile and beautiful personality.

      What will we remember most about Donna?  Her humor , her kindness and sincerity and her general belief that everyone is good and means well. 

      She had a great love for music, playing drums and coloring. She had about a 100 coloring books.

      She really enjoyed food, but was not really partial to vegetables although she did take a liking to asperges recently.

      She also liked doing crochet, she started on scarves for a colleague’s daughters in 2017 but never finished them as Donna always wanted everything to be perfect and thought that what she created was never good enough.

      Her drive was something everyone admired. She moved from California to The Netherlands on her own and mastered the Dutch language in no time without following one course

      Donna’s death was sudden, but her life was not faint. Her memory will always be with us.

      We will all miss our friend dearly and are grateful for having known her.

      Please be so kind to write your messages in English.

        Thank you for being a caring and helpful person, not only as a colleague. The tips you gave me for my trip to San Francisco some years ago were vey helpful. Since then, for me San Francisco has become synonymous with you.
        You were a multi-talented individual, humourous and straightforward.
        My thoughts are with you, your family and loved ones. My sincere condolences.

        I’m so incredibly sad to hear this terrible news. I know Donna since I started working for Elsevier many years ago and I always admired her individuality, her humor and her honesty. She was a great example showing that you should always follow your passion; age doesn’t matter.
        Dear family and friends of Donna: my deepest condolences and wishing you all the strength in the world in these incredible difficult times.

        I will miss Donna forever. She was a best friend, a person could only dream of.
        Her strength, wisdom and passion for life cannot be explained in words.
        She left us way to early.
        My sincere condolences to hear lovely family and friends.

        We may be miles apart and oceans separate us.
        We may be from different culture and race.
        We may have different mother tongues.
        But Donna is a friend who surely will be missed.

        You may now be at rest my friend from a far,

        Dear family of Donna,
        I was so sorry to hear about the unexpected death of Donna. I'm still in shock myself.
        Your daughter, sister and aunt was a lovely and nice person, which makes it so hard to believe that she's gone. She will surely be missed.
        My sincere condolences. My thoughts and prayers are with you and may the comfort of God help you through this difficult and sad time.
        Marian

        I’m so sorry to hear this sad news. She was a very lovely colleague and although I didn’t know her that well, I always remember the conversations we had on the books she read and her tips on what makes a good thriller. My sincere condolences to her family and friends.

      De mooiste herinneringen zijn vaak eenvoudige momenten waar je het eerst aan denkt. Condoleances zijn vaak de woorden die als eerste in je opkomen om verdriet te delen.
