Donna Louise Madras

Born in Tulsa, Oklahoma on February 1, 1952, Donna was a remarkable woman whose kindness and unwavering love touched everyone who had the privilege of knowing her. She dedicated her life to her family, raising 3 children with warmth and compassion, and creating a home full of laughter, encouragement, and unconditional love.

Donna was known for her cooking, gentle spirit, love of music, and tireless work ethic. She was kind and funny and loving and raunchy and smart and headstrong. Above all she was a free spirit and a force to be reckoned with.

She is survived by her daughters, Setrina Hettinger and Katrina Killough; son Raymond John Madras; grandchildren James Breaden III (Setrina), Austin Turner (Katrina), Jared Guajardo (Katrina), Sarah Hettinger (Setrina), Eleanor Madras (Raymond); great grandson James Breaden IV (James); and brother Clifford Holland who will carry her memory in their hearts and strive to honor the example she set. Her legacy lives on in the lives she shaped and the love she gave so freely.

Visitation will be held on Friday, May 23rd from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM at Arch L. Heady at Resthaven, 4400 Bardstown Road, Louisville, KY 40218. All who knew and loved Donna along with friends of the family are welcome to attend and celebrate her remarkable life.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in her memory to Dementia Society of America (dementiasociety.org) reflecting her generous spirit and dedication to helping others.

She will be deeply missed but never forgotten
