Dwight and I certainly offer our deepest condolences to Pres and Donna's family. We knew Pres and Donna early in their careers when we were all students at Lycoming College in Pennsylvania. They were faculty and we were students. Both Pres and Donna were such wonderful role models for all who knew them. Pres conducted our wedding and Donna was with us as we took our vows. We remember both if them with great love and joy. May they both rest in peace

Barb Snively and i were social friends of Donna's during our teaching careers. She and I attended PDK meetings and we all three went to the symphony and enjoyed seeing each other there. I also went to several Coe College events ( my brother Jim Crabbe) was a professor there too. I saw Donna and Pres often at those affairs. She was always fun to be with. I enjoyed her company when ever we got together. i did not know she had moved to Northfield. She was a lovely woman and a teaching friend. Marge Stell art teacher, Metro High School CR

Dear Donna's passing to join her dear Pres is sad indeed, but I believe that she had a full life who despite health concerns triumphed in all her endeavors not only evident from her marvelous poetry book with illustrations by Pres, but also her gracious and kind demeanor. She was a strong woman to be admired. I felt good whenever we met at poetry critique meetings where she gave me inspired comments always and in educational and social functions at Coe College. I will miss her and I'm sorry that I lost track of her after Pres died. She was admired and loved by many including me.
