Donna Dingus

She dedicated over 30 years to the automotive service industry, earning numerous accolades for her excellence, leadership, and unwavering passion for business. Her work ethic and commitment impacted countless lives, both professionally and personally.

Beyond her career, Donna embodied a servant’s heart. She faithfully delivered meals for Meals on Wheels, served with devotion at Eastview Bible Church, and joyfully adopted children each year through the Sullivan County Angel Tree program. Her energy and drive were evident in everything she undertook, and she lived each day with purpose and compassion.

Donna’s greatest joy was her family—especially her grandchildren, who were the light of her life. She loved deeply and fully, embracing everyone she met with warmth and sincerity. Her legacy is one of faith, generosity, and love. She truly was the hands and feet of Jesus in her community.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Wanda Fulks and Fred Sproles; grandparents, S.L. and Elizabeth Fulks.

Those left to cherish her memory include her loving husband of 30 years, Steve Dingus; one son, Glen Peery and wife Leslie; two daughters, Mary Beth Flippin and husband Cory and Hannah Yates and husband Christian; one brother, Billy Sproles and wife Tina; one sister, Renee Sproles-Helton and husband Harvey; lifelong best friend and sister at heart, Carla Vinkler; six grandchildren, whom she adored, Kathren Peery, Orry Peery, Nolan Peery, Ezra Flippin, Eli Flippin, and Samuel Yates. Donna also leaves behind many extended family members and friends, and will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
