    My deepest condolences to Ben, Mike and Deanna. I’ve known the Velners for about 10 yrs. When I worked for Ben & Mike in the shop, on our breaks we would go and sit in the house, Donna always had fresh baked treats for us. Donna was one of the nicest people you would want to meet. She will truly be missed by the ones that knew her.
