Donna was the heart and soul of her family, known for her compassion, warmth, and infectious laughter. She was a proud military wife of 25 years, whose adventurous spirit carried her across the country and beyond. Her love of life was reflected in her deep appreciation for travel, her cherished dogs, and the time spent with family and friends.
A graduate of Sylvan Hills High School, Donna went on to earn her diploma in cosmetology from Arthur’s Beauty College. Creative and kind-hearted, she found joy in life’s simple pleasures — sipping coffee, listening to the waves, and finding peace at the beach. She loved music, arts and crafts, and cherished every moment of family togetherness.
Donna was preceded in death by numerous aunts and uncles, and her brother-in-law, Mark Ledbetter Sr.
She is survived by her beloved husband of 45 years, Mark; her children: Amanda Jo (JoAnna), Josh, and Sara; her treasured granddaughter, Sahara Jo; her mother, Margaret, and her father; her siblings: Connie (Joey), Eddie (Lisa), and Patti (Steve); and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends whose lives she touched with her kindness and laughter.
