5th April 2009

Dozens of floral tributes were left by friends and relatives at the scene of a crash which claimed the life of a Bristol woman.

Candles and photographs of 26-year-old Donna Mitchell were left at the spot near the junction of Bedminster Down Road and Winterstoke Road.

She died shortly after the accident on 5 April, 2009.

Donna lived in Knowle, had an eight-year-old daughter and was engaged to be married.

One friend viewing the tributes said: "Donna was a fun-loving girl who was always smiling. She always looked a million dollars – she was absolutely gorgeous."

A message attached to a bouquet of flowers read: "Still can't believe this has happened. Life is so cruel to take away such a great sister and auntie. You were very special to us and still are."

Another, signed Dodge, read: "I'm so sorry I never got to give you the wedding we talked about. I will always remember you. I love you so much."

  • Can't believe that you...

    Can't believe that you have gone...

    Such a beautiful young women who enjoyed life so much. Lots of lovely memories of you that will stay in our hearts forever. Never a dull moment with Doods around, we'd laugh at the unexpecting things you would do & say, such a special character.
    Keep shining down on us with your big smile, a lovely angel & the brightest star.

    Thinking of Vin, Don, Lee & Chloe (& the rest of the family) at this sad time, love to you all.

    Sleep tight Donna xx Val, Barry, Louise & Craig xx

  • Where do I start?...

    Where do I start? What do I say?

    I'm still shocked by the tragic news.

    Its been some time since I last saw you, we spoke on facebook a few weeks ago, its the easiest way to stay in touch with old friends nowadays. I still can't believe that you are gone, so young, so beautiful, all of your life ahead of you.

    Everyone that had the pleasure of knowing you will always keep you in their hearts, you were a genuine person, full of laughter and smiles.

    I'm sure there are many lasting memories of you going through all of our brains, I'm smiling as I write about hanging out in the school toilets, why did we all hang out there? they stunk! Bank holiday Mondays, getting the train to Weston always brings a smile to my face - Ashton Court Festivals, oh and the Happy Landings just to name a few!

    My heart goes out to all of Donna's family and close friends, She'll be your guardian angel now, she'll guide your way.

    With love and sympathy
