Angela Donahue

Angela Donahue raised her biological
daughter Jasmine Banks. She continues to hear from her foster
children that they appreciated her praise of their scribbling, her
listening, her responses to their attempts to express themselves,
her respect for their feelings, and her encouragement of their
interests. She was always ready with a hug and kiss. Angela, we
thank you for putting blankets around so many foster children and
giving them a loving home. In addition, Angela managed to find
time to further her college education and volunteer for Women’s
Transit Authority.
