She was a graduate of Stivers High School 1946, worked at NCR until her marriage to Marvin; then started her working life at Hugo Wagenseil Advertising Agency (now WCH Adv. Agency) in 1949, retiring in 1991.
Donna was known as a very caring and loving person with a great sense of humor, enjoyed banter with many people and remembered as having a lot of spunk. She loved children and was considered a special aunt to several children who remained close until her passing.
She was very close and a great friend to many people including her cousins: Joni Grossman Gainer of Chicago, Lynne Svoboda, Tim Thomas, Lou Simmermacher, and Greg Simmermacher and considered her longtime friends: Lynda and Dean Pingery, their daughter, Emily Ann Pingrey Mitsch, son-in-law Bryan Mitsch, and their children Joseph Dean Mitsch and Grace Elizabeth Mitsch as extended family. She also enjoyed her bible study with friends Karen Johnson and Norma Smitherman. Donna was very appreciative of the many friends that brough her great joy while visiting her at Bethany.
Donna requested there be no visitation – private family services only.
Burial will be at David’s Cemetery Mausoleum.
