    Donna you are among the angels now, free to fly anywhere with no pain. I will miss you my baby sister. I cry as I type this message. It was hard to let you go, but I did not want to see you suffer any more. I know you will watch over mom and I from above. You will always be in our heart, and not very far from us. I will take care of mom, until we meet again. R.I.P. DONNA MARIE TETREAULT 9/3/60-5/20/11 your loving sister Diana..

    Wings Of The Angels

    A gentle wind blew cross the land
    Reaching out to take a hand
    For on the winds the angels came
    Calling out a aunt’s name.

    Left behind, the niece’s tears
    Loving memories of the years
    Of joy and love, a life well spent
    And now to God a aunt’s sent.

    On angel’s wings, a heavenly flight
    The journey home, towards the light
    To those who weep, a life is gone
    But in God’s love, ’tis but the dawn.

    I WILL ALWAYS LOVE AND MISS YOU! YOU ARE A SPECIAL AUNT AND WILL ALWAYS HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART!

    LOVE YOU AUNT DONNA LOVE YOUR NIECE CATRINA

    Hey Mom its me your Pumkin. Its been a long road huh? Today you are at peace and watching over your loved ones and giving luck to everyone. You are such a beautiful woman and I am blessed to have such a wonderful mother. Caden says he loves you so much and misses you and hopes your not crying anymore. I told him you weren’t. It’s so hard mom so much we have yet to do. But these last weeks I have been humbled by everything down to the last breath. Many give me love and hugs for theyre sorrow, you were very loved mom and had some really beautiful hearted friends. I went to Georges today had a coffee and saw you there and Gerry at his station on the grill you were smiling at me and you let me know you would never leave my side, not til the time you walk me into the gates of heaven. Mom you have given us a life full of memories and joy and plenty of laughter, you have given us moments of tears and yet you given us moments of joy but to me through everything you given me life. You have given me all the love a mother does and some. Mom may I hope your trip to Gerry was safe and i hope you both are smiling down on me with Pokey licking at your legs, I miss you all and one day I’ll catch up but till then just let me know your there with the suttle breeze or the sun so bright fill my nights with bright stars and give me peace in knwing your there watching over me and my family I love you mom. I’ll see you later just keep me out of trouble *wink wink* Always and Forever love your Son Joseph, your Grandson Caden and your Daughter in-law Diana Tetreault

    Big Sister Donna,
    Know how much I love you and that I’ll always do my best to make you proud. When things are all said and done, life wasn’t fair to you but you never really complained–you just did the best you could with everything you had. If all the love from your family and friends is any indication of a happy, successful life, then your life was truly the best. I’ll keep my memories of you safe within my heart.
    Love–your little brother Stevie XXXXOOOO!!!!
