In memory of Donna Melia

By Emma Van Wyck

In memory of Donnie

Our beautiful Donnie passed away on the 8th August, surrounded by her loving family. She was peaceful and free from pain.

Our hearts are truly broken. Donnie defied all odds and fought courageously with strength, positivity and determination until the very end. She lived life to the fullest. Her family meant everything to her, and even in the toughest times, she never gave up. Throughout it all she still continued to put everyone else first and always thought of others.

We know she was loved by so many, so please remember her in your own way, maybe watching a sunrise, sharing a glass of red, or simply sitting quietly and reflecting on what she meant to you.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that you consider making a donation to a cancer charity close to Donnie’s heart, such as Chris O’Brien Lifehouse, where Donna was lucky enough to participate in a clinical trial for several weeks.

She was always Daddy’s little girl, and now she is with him again. I’m sure he will have a glass of red wine waiting for her.

Thank you for all your messages love and support, it truly means a lot.

Donna was so special. We shared many conversations about our lives, families, adventures, challenges and joys. I admired her genuine care, thoughtfulness and kindness to others and she stood up for her values. Donna was a devoted wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend and not to mention exceptionally amazing hairdresser. I always think of Donna with warm, loving and funny memories, I loved her and am so grateful she was in my life for so long (I think 30 years). My heartfelt love and comfort to her family and those that feel this loss. You will always be in my heart
