Miss Donald was such an important part of my life in jr. high. She was a great motivator, and I learned much from her. I was in choir in 7th, 8th, and 9th grade, and went on to the PHS Concert Choir, and then a scholarship to college. She was the key that started me on that path. She will be missed!
I am so sorry you are gone. What a huge impact you have had on my life. I loved you so much. Thank you for the many wonderful years of choir. You helped make us the best.
Miss Donald is by far one of the finest souls to have graced my existence. I'll never forget the long hours she would spend working with us in preparation for All-State Choir auditions, her joyous laughter, the talent she freely shared, the lessons she taught us all, and her total selflessness.May she rest in peace, and may light perpetual shine upon her!
Miss Donald was my precious friend and next door neighbor on Russell Street for a number of years. I have missed her the last few years while she was living in Amarillo and will continue to miss her, but am glad she is no longer suffering. My condolences to the family, especially Sandy and Bill.
I remember her fondly as our junior high choir director in Phillips. She was tough but taught me a tremendous amount about music. My condolences to her family and friends.
I will always remember Mrs. Donald. She was my choir teacher in Junior High in Pampa. God bless your family!
What an unforgettable, wonderful music teacher! Her sense of humor but firm approach was great and I have never forgotten her over the years. Even though I was from Spearman, she was always encouraging, even if you weren't from her school or cboir. Her smile was as big as Texas and her laugh made you happy! It was a privilege to know her and my sympathies go out to the family for the loss of this very special lady. Thanks, Ms. Donald, for the great high school memories!
Ms. Donald was our neighbor on Russell street for about 10 years. She was a super sweet lady always with a smile. She will be directing a much larger choir now with her angels in heaven.
What a privilege is has been to be a friend of Elena's. She was my mentor when I started teaching and a great teacher to all her students. I will miss her tremendously but am glad that she is free from a body that was no longer able to keep up with her. I am sure she is singing in God's Choir. We will see her again when we reach heaven's gates.
I will always remember Miss Donald. I was one of her choir students in Pampa in 8th & 9th grade. I was honored to be in many ensemble groups of hers, one in which we practiced at her house. She waited with me on a couple of occasions for my parents to pick me up. She was a great inspiration and a wonderful choir teacher. See you in heaven. My prayers are with the family.
