MomMom Donato was an incredibly caring and devoted mom, mom mom and great grandmom. Blood never mattered to her only love. She shared a special bond with our son and I know because of her absolute love and devotion he is a better man for it. She will be so missed and forever loved…deepest condolences to the family she leaves behind

Mrs.D. you were more than my friend's mother to me, you were my 2nd mom as a child. Always had the right words to say on my darkest days. I will always cherish my time spent in your home. May you finally rest in peace with your loving husband. You will be missed but never forgotten.
