Donna M.

Halliday

Donna Marie Halliday passed away on Saturday, November 28, 2020 at the age of 68.

Donna Marie Halliday was born in Teaneck, New Jersey on January 23, 1952.  Her mother, Delores Halliday and brother, Shane Halliday, predecease her.

Donna was educated in the Teaneck school system and throughout her career held positions as a substance abuse counselor at ARC, the Brooklyn Detention Center and Promesa.

Donna could always be heard saying, " I love my family" and she WAS a fierce "mama" bear and treasured her children and embraced every moment with them.  She especially loved her role as Nana.

If you know Donna you know that she loved her music.  Put a tune on that moved her and it was enough to get her singing and dancing.  Donna loved to love on people and always made people around her laugh, but know that you always knew where you stood with her.

Donna will be sorely missed and is survived in legacy by her children, Darren Halliday and Kerri Halliday, her grandchildren, Darren J. Halliday and Amanda T. Halliday, aunts, Barbara Williams and Jeanette Cotright, and a host of cousins and friends, and last but not least "Nico".

For those of us who knew Donna well she would say to us, if you need me, call me and I will come.  Though you can't see me, or touch me, I'll be near and if you listen closely, you'll hear all my love around you soft and clear.  Then when you must come this way alone, I'll greet you with a hug and say, "welcome".

The family of Donna Halliday deeply expresses their appreciation and gratitude for all who have reached out and supported them during their time of grief.
