I recently met Donna November of last year when I moved home to Dothan after being away for 10 plus years. She served not only as my realtor but became a very dear friend, endearing, fun & such a gracious lady. She was so proud to introduce me to the "love of her life" as she called her husband & her many friends & family members. I will sorely miss Donna & am blessed to have known her. My sincerest condolences to her husband & family. Donna B
