DONNA RETIRES
Now her only job is to harass her husband, George! (or should that be the other way around?)

Donna Shepherd has been at First Western since 1989. Though she didn't have a big title, her contribution to the company will be missed. Donna has been seen training three people to take over her tasks.

Donna plans on enjoying her new grandchild, spoiling her dog Trixie, and enjoying more time with George (she told me it would be in that order too!)
