Not long after our dear Donna Faye bid us goodbye in her last post at https://csn.cancer.org/node/322878, she passed away amongst her beloved family. Her obituary is at https://www.articobits.com/obituaries/american-cremation-and-funeral-service-durham-nc/faye-gregory-obituary. It's a beautiful tribute to the woman we got to know here.

I'm deeply grateful that Donna Faye chose to keep us close as she neared the end of her journey so that we could express our love and appreciation for all her wise words and support to others while she was still alive to read our messages and understand how much she meant to us.

    Such a sharing, caring and dignified soul right up to the end...I am sure her family feels they were blessed just as we do here. ??

    May she rest in eternal peace!

    Another thank you CMB

    The board went quiet as we were told goodbye by Donna Faye.  It helps to see her memorial.  I thought we have to respect each members wishes.  Some want to pass privately.  But we have affection for our members.  All.  So it is nice to read the tribute.

    I miss her.  I'm so sorry I didn't get the chance to bid her goodbye.  She was so kind, so supportive and understanding. Sounds like she lived a remarkable life.  Her family was so lucky to have her.

    Thank you for posting, CMB.

    Thank you for posting, CMB. She was diagnosed just a month or so before me and was one of the first I met on this board. We were both stage 1A and she was such an inspiration to me. 
    An amazing woman! She is missed.
