Kiss Mom and Rosie
God have mercy on the soul of Donna Jane Ruson and grant comfort to her family.
It seems like yesterday we were walking thru Jane Field and eating pickled herring and rye bread in the car.
So many crazy memories. The last of the old neighborhood.

With deepest sympathy, may you rest in peace”.from the old neighborhood toby
My dearest Nana, even as a young child I’ve always appreciated the way that you spoke your mind. I was so lucky to have experienced some of my favorite memories with you at your house on Carpenter. You were one of the strongest women in my life, as well as an amazing mother and grandmother to many. Nobody will forget all of the love and acceptance that you had to share. Thank you for being so unapologetically yourself — I’m extremely grateful to have learned a lot from you. I love you very much Nana, may you rest in peace. ❤️
Omg this was such hard news to hear. You will be very missed . Love you Donna
Donna has been my neighbor over 20 years.
I’ve known her & her family when she was a little girl. Always outspoken and feisty.
Never a dull moment with her. I know how much she loved my Cranberry Relish I made for her. Always a smile on her face.
I’ll miss the many talks and texts we exchanged. We will be praying for you and
your family. Rest in peace Dear Neighbor.

My buddy Words can’t explain the sadness I feel. I will cherish all the memories we have. My beautiful buddy.
Donna was nothing but loving, alway welcoming and never any judgement, she was so sweet our last conversation we talked like we never had years between us, she embraced me and i will never forget her, the funniest memories of me and Jen hanging out and she would let us know when we were out of line. Will be missed dearly, love you. RIH Donna
Jennifer, I am sorry for your loss. I meet Donna through Tracy, and from that day on she felt like family to everyone in the Hamtramck Common. Again I am very sorry for your loss, and I can relate not to your mom as family but true family.I lost my father on this day in 1992. We laid him to rest on my mother’s birthday. So I can always said that other great parent was lost on that day for the rest of my life, and I am sure Tracy will relate to my loss as well as hers with you. Take care and know she will be missed by all who knew her. Bob Robbins.
