Beloved wife of the late James Edward Yorke. Beloved mother to Kimberley, James (Amanda) and the late Nancy Yorke. Beloved daughter of the late Florella Weare and the late Wilson Corkum. Donna was an amazing Nanny to Justin (Dominique) Toope-Yorke, Caitlyn Toope-Yorke, Liam Toope-Yorke, Sierra, James and Stella Yorke. Born in Caledonia, Nova Scotia on May 30th, 1947.
