The Heart of Donna Wallace



A beautiful black woman, with a mean shoe game.  One who is always willing to help, no matter the situation or circumstance. That's the heart of Donna Wallace.

She is a jack of all trades, and a master of one; living as a reflection of the love of God.  A simple "hello beloved" from her will make you smile, but a conversation with her will leave a lasting impression for more than a little while.

She's a wife, a mother, and a close friend to so many, but gives you her attention, as if it is "all about you".  I've seen it time and time again, "Chief DL" saved the day.  If she kept a tab on favors, she would be due for a huge payday.

Today, I focus my attention to a person who is so humble that it will make you check yourself.  In fact, it took me three weeks to find a picture of her, and just like I figured, it wasn't by herself.

We don't celebrate our "everyday hero's" enough.  Good deeds get overlooked by "Charlie Sheen" headlines.  We don't have to wait until someone is old or dies to show appreciation on Blogs, Facebook, and Twitter time lines.

She's what I wanna be, when I "grow up". If you know her, meet her, or hold a conversation with her, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about.  A wonderful, loving soul, that will always be loved and appreciated by so many. That's the heart of Donna Wallace.
