Later, Donna started working with congregate transportation and delivering meals. She has met so many wonderful people over the years.
In 2000, Donna started working directly with transportation. She has been through seven or more directors. Carol Matthews hired Donna and asked her how long she planned to be here. She replied, until I retire. “I got one of the jobs I love the most. It was either animals or seniors, and I got seniors,” Donna said. The Center and our Seniors hold a special place in her heart. She always goes above and beyond. She recalled working as a homemaker in her early days and noticed that the senior she was cleaning for had dirty windows, and they were the kind that had to be taken out to be cleaned. The apartment was on the fifth floor, and she was hanging out the window to clean it and almost gave some seniors a heart attack.
She says that you can learn so much from the seniors. She loves to listen to their stories, they are awesome.
Donna now works strictly in transportation. She loved it when she started and still loves it now.
We appreciate Donna’s commitment to the Center for Seniors and all her hard work and dedication for the last 30 years.
