Donna Mae fell ill Thursday, the first night of the reunion. She was to ride with me to the show, but she was not feeling well enough, and had a doctor visit the previous Monday. I met with her on Sunday so she could give me a few items for the reunion. It was a great shock to us all. If she would have come, she would have had this happen at the reunion. She is still hospitalized. If you would want to send cards I will post an address. John Conolley is handling her affairs at the moment...BKH

Per Bob McClurg....


Tomorrow, John Connolly will be taking Donna Mae to yet another home which he feels pretty confident about. Only time will tell. In the meantime, I would highly recommend that you send all cards and/or letters of correspondance to Donna Mae in care of Mr. John Connolly, 1158 Arrowood Dr. Pittsburgh, P.A. 15243, and let's all say a prayer this wonderful woman.

Cordially, Bob McClurg

Donna Mae was a super cool lady. I had the pleasure of meeting her several times over the past 10-12 years, and she always had something interesting to say. We've lost a great person here, and another huge chapter of the Yenko story. She'll definitely always be remembered. May she rest in peace.

Great excerpt from Brock Yates Book, in her own words:
