Donna was born June 21, 1927 in Meadow, Utah to Joseph Leo and Velma Bushnell Stott. She married her high school sweetheart Jerald Ray Warner on July 17, 1945 in Meadow, Utah. The marriage was later solemnized in the Manti L.D.S. Temple. Donna graduated from Millard High School.
She worked for Sperry Univac for 24 years, retiring as a Lead Line Supervisor. She also worked hard all her life to help provide for her family, which she loved dearly. She was so proud of her yard and flower garden, and it was a delight to appreciate it with her. She enjoyed every opportunity to gather with family to celebrate the holidays and especially the time in the summer at Seeley Lake, Montana. These events created lasting family bonds, of which we are all so grateful. She was a devoted cook especially memorable were her cream pies, and pecan logs. And her Thanksgiving dinners were unforgettable.
Donna’s hobbies included crocheting afghans, quilting, shopping at thrift stores, and “dumpster diving”, always proudly showing off her “treasures”. Her very favorite “recreational” sites were Wendover, and Mesquite, Nevada
