Donna Gale Desautels

In loving memory of Donna Gale Desautels, age 54 of Dryden, who passed away on Wednesday, December 2, 2009 at the Dryden Regional Health Centre.
Donna had many loves in her life after her family and friends, baseball, soccer and the outdoors. She also loved her animals; horses, frogs and of course her dogs. Donna never did things halfway like her job at the hospital for the past 10 years. If a job had to be done it was done only to the standards that she could be proud of. This was in every aspect of her life, work or play.
She is greatly loved and will be missed by all who had the pleasure of having her touch their lives.
Donna is survived by her husband Marcel; son Christopher; daughter Marcie; her Mother Alma; sisters, Sharon (Bob) Young of Sioux Lookout, Leona Manchulenko, and Cathy Polny of Dryden; brothers, Lloyd, Ivan (Lynda) of Sioux Lookout, Larry of Mission, BC and Keith (Kathy) of Abbotsford BC; in-laws, Linda (Bill) Scott Jr. of Keewatin, Norman (Laurie), Gerry (Claudette), Donald (Margaret), Richard (Inga) and Pat Rathwell and Sophie (Roger) all of Dryden.
She was predeceased by her father Julius in 1993 and her brother Kenneth in 1951.
