Donna Goodreau

With heavy hearts and loving memories, we announce the passing of Donna Goodreau. Born on March 14, 1948, in Manchester, NH, Donna brought light and joy into the lives of everyone she encountered. Her time with us was brief, but the warmth and kindness she shared will resonate in our hearts forever. Donna was the cherished daughter of Richard and Annette Vigneau, who predeceased her, along with her beloved sister Judy Federick and brother Peter Vigneau. Raised in a home filled with love and creativity, Donna carried these values forward with a passion for arts and crafts that was truly inspiring. She had a unique talent for crafting whimsical gnome figures from clay, creating intricate Trees of Life from wire, and weaving elegant Dream Catchers. Her exceptional skill in knitting earned her several first-place awards at the Derryfield Fair, a testament to her dedication and artistry. Known for her incredible generosity, Donna's home was a sanctuary of warmth and acceptance. She had an extraordinary gift for making everyone feel welcome, greeting guests with a radiant smile and an offering of delicious food, always ready to share her culinary delights. It was impossible to leave her home without a token of her affection, whether it was a handcrafted treasure or simply the comforting feeling of being loved and appreciated. Her kindness touched everyone she met, leaving behind a legacy of joy and compassion. While Donna's physical presence is no longer with us, her spirit lives on in the countless lives she touched. We find solace in the beautiful memories she leaves behind and the love she generously shared. In honor of Donna's memory, the family suggests donations be made to a charity of your choice, as a tribute to her generous spirit and enduring legacy of kindness.
