Donna K. Jones

Donna attended the University of Southern Indiana where she obtained a bachelor's degree in mathematics and then went on to get her master's degree from the University of Evansville. She was employed at St. Mary's Medical Center as an assistant to the director of surgery and at the University of Evansville where she was the assistant to the director of alumni relations until her retirement.

Her name meant “lady,” and Donna went out of her way to show love and respect to everyone. She truly was a lady.

She is survived by her husband of 48 years, Donald; her sons, Kevin and Christopher; her daughter-in-law, Janna; her grandson, Gabriel; her granddaughter, Sophia; her brother, Michael Kilpatrick, and his wife, Ingrid; her sisters, Debra Kilpatrick and Janet Stapleton and Janet’s husband, Ronnie; her brothers-in-law, Michael and his wife, Jill, and Stephen and his wife, Jeanne, along with many nieces and nephews.
