Donna Bank

Born on December 6, 1953, Donna grew up in her family home in White Meadow Lake in Rockaway, NJ, a community she deeply loved. That love stayed with her throughout her life, and she later returned to White Meadow Lake, where she raised her two daughters.

Donna held many roles throughout her life, including working as a travel agent, a hostess at the White Meadow Lake Country Club, and a cashier. However, her most cherished work always involved children. Whether she was teaching arts and crafts, working as a preschool teacher at the White Meadow Lake Temple, serving as assistant director at Camp White Meadow, or preparing and serving food at a local elementary school, Donna found her greatest joy in bringing smiles to the faces of children.

She is survived by her two loving daughters, Paige Bank (Brian Castka) of Randolph, NJ, and Lindsay Bank (Dylan Rimsky) of Rockaway, NJ; her mother, Barbara Strassman of Boca Raton, FL; her brother, Wayne Strassman (Christine); and her nephew, Gabriel Strassman, of West Orange, NJ. She was preceded in death by her father, Allan Strassman, and her nephews, Bryan and Alexander Strassman.

We appreciate your love, support, and condolences during this difficult time. Your presence and shared memories of Donna bring comfort to our family as we honor her life and legacy.

For those who wish, memorial gifts in Donna’s memory may be made to the ASPCA.

A graveside service will be held at King Solomon Memorial Park, located at 550 Dwasline Rd, Clifton, NJ, 07012, United States. The service is scheduled for December 22, 2025, starting at 2:00 pm.
