Mystery Classmate 090

Congratulations to Laura Murton O’Hara, Beth Chufo Nichols, Mike Williams, Amy Chufo Prezelski, John Plack, Karen Bonvalot Torres, Becky Gongaware Hannon, Leann Impavido Mendenhall, Nancy Ondick Hahn, Leslie Rush Cuda, Sharon Wasko Skoff, Tracy Schneider Rogers, Lauren Hoener Nace, Amy Baer Davie, Kelly Sauer Mazon, Amy Gongaware Senkow, Linda Wolff, Bill Stout, Kimberly Hall, Ellen Broadberry Gallagher, Celesta Van Sickel Bjornson, Stephanie Siuda Dickens, and Karen Campbell Ricci, all of whom correctly identified Donna Andreas ('84) as Mystery Classmate #90 and are listed in the order that their responses were received.

In case you were wondering, Donna Andreas Copley is an engineer at Dupont in Richmond, Virginia. Karen Campbell Ricci reports that Donna and her husband Jerry just built a huge house and she begs Karen and friends to visit every time Donna communicates with any one of the ole gang. The Newport Road chums had a great time on their group vacation last August. Donna has two kids, Christopher and Kirsten, and they are very active with baseball, cheerleading, etc. Donna also helps coach a running team in the Richmond area. Karen adds, “She is just the same old goofy Donna...”

Several classmates had nice things to say about Donna. Laura Murton, Nancy Ondick Hahn, and Ellen Broadberry Gallagher thought that Donna looks exactly the same. Leslie Rush Cuda thought that Donna looks exactly the same, but with longer hair.

Becky Gongaware Hannon called Donna a spaz. Her sister Amy Gongaware Senkow added that Donna is “otherwise known as Spaz and Heavage. Truly one of my oldest, dearest, best friends. She can make a mean pepperoni bread. She always was good for making us food and then going out for a five mile run, leaving us alone at her house. Love ya Donna.”

Amy Chufo Prezelski remembered, “Donna was such a great mentor for me as a freshman swimmer. She always kept me up and positive.” Bill Stout remembered Donna from cross-country.

Sharon Wasko Skoff reported, “Donna and I go way back to 7th grade science, Ms. Leibert's class. The best thing is that we live near each other in Virginia.”

Milton Koutavas guessed Holly Kothmann. Mark Koutavas guessed Charla Tate.
