Donna Carol Espinosa, 64, a resident of Santa Clara, NM, entered eternal rest on Sunday April 28, 2024 at her residence.  She was born to her parents Alfred Jr. and Priscilla (Young) Gonzales in San Bernadino, CA on May 1, 1959.

Donna was the brightest, purest and honest person one would come across. She loved her family, friends and her Walmart family who had a special place in her heart. She gave her heart and soul to the ones that gave her theirs.  If someone needed a place to stay, her door was open. She had the most contagious laugh, smile, and energy. You would always hear her laugh from the other side of the store. The strength to fight for her son gave her a little more time with us. The lord knew she was tired and needed to finally rest. 

“Don’t Cry. Play music, Dance, Celebrate my life” -Donna Espinosa
