Press release from the City of Baton Rouge:

January 21, 2021

BATON ROUGE, La. – January 21, 2020 – I am deeply saddened by the loss of the beloved Donna Britt. Throughout her lifetime, Donna was a light for many, and an essential part of the fabric of our community.

To know Donna was to love her, and thousands of our community members undoubtedly did. Not only was her talent as an anchor a part of the fabric of our community, but her heart for the people of Baton Rouge was evident in her endless service and the generosity of her daily actions. She poured her life into this community, and we are all richer for it.

On behalf of the Baton Rouge community, my thoughts and prayers go out to her husband Mark, her children, and all of those who cherished her during her lifetime. Donna will live on in the hearts of many for years to come.
