Donna's positive outlook and unmatched optimism were hallmarks of her giving personality. She had a golden heart and was always looking to find the good in life and in others. She made everyone see a brighter side. Besides her husband Mike, and father, Donald, she leaves her son, Sean Michael Fuss and his wife Cora of Wethersfield; her daughter, Jennifer Fuss Asmar and her husband Jeff of Canton; a sister, Patricia J. Aucoin and her husband John of West Hartford. She was especially blessed with three young grandchildren, Grace, Noah, and Sarenna, that she was able to enjoy and enrich their lives.
