Her oldest son Rick Cutitta, wife Sheri, granddaughter Mary Elizabeth and great grandson Thomas Maysen were a constant source of joy. Donna lived her last years with her daughter Laura Ritchey and grandchildren Jarrel, Frankie and Tyray. Grandson Ryan Ritchey also was a source of great pride to Donna. Her youngest son, Scott Cutitta and wife Donnita and grandchildren Amanda (Stackhouse), Allison and Dylan and great granddaughter Emery Mae each shared a strong bond with Donna. Some of Donna’s fondest moments were spent with her friends playing cards. She loved bridge or any form of card game and equally enjoyed spending time with her cherished friends. Her church family from North Cross United Methodist was very important to her and served as a huge source of comfort as her illness progressed.

Sending love and blessings to John Ziegler, Jackie, and Donna, for the loss of your gem of a sister. To me, I knew her as a person who was full of love and life -- and one who loved her family. May her memory live forward with her children and grandchildren.
