In Memory of Donna Beck
Donna Beck was an employee of mine for over 25 years during my time as an Optometrist in Inverness, Florida - but she was much more than that. Donna ran our optical department throughout those years and was a major reason for its success. She was loved by our patients and always went above and beyond to make their experience with us the best it could be.
I truly can´t imagine my practice over the years without her. She was deeply respected by both our staff and our patients. Despite her 45-minute drive to work each day, she never complained once.
Donna enjoyed her home on the water but always kept a warm heart for her hometown of Butler, Pennsylvania. She often joked about never getting Kenny out of Ozello, but she loved her life here in Florida-well, except for the hurricanes.
She´ll be missed by countless people who were lucky enough to call her their friend.
Rest in peace, Donna.
