My deepest condolences to the entire Chiesa and Thompson families. I have known Donna since junior high, and have SO many wonderful memories of her. Whenever I think of Donna, I think of her smiling and laughing. She could have chosen to be unhappy, given her health issues, but she was so positive! I just saw Donna at our class 15 year reunion, and was impressed by how beautiful she was, and how happy she seemed. May God be with all of you during this sad time, and give you strength as you grieve for your loss.

Donna, you are such an amazing person and a great friend, beautiful on both the inside and out. I will never forget our talks about anything and everything. I don't think there was a thing we forgot to talk about! I will miss you so much and not a day will go by that I don't think about you! You were such a strong person and never once chose to complain about anything. You were the most positive person I know. You are an angel up in heaven! I love you so much! May god give everyone who loves you (which is so many people) especially your family the strength to get through this time! Your life will be a true celebration through the memories we all share!! xoxoxoxoxoxoxo!
