Hello all, this is an update about the very unfortunate loss of someone that volunteered for endless years and hours for the Miss New Jersey Education Foundation. Donna Ayres, had passed away this past Wednesday, January 25th. We waited a bit for formally announcing this, in respect for her family and Donna's requests prior to her passing. Here is the information if you would like to attend the service or make any donations in her honor. This is a very upsetting and difficult event for many of us to accept. Donna will be in our hearts and prayers forever.
