Donna spent many years working for medical offices in Elyria, retiring from Dr Carmen Hansford's office. Donna loved spending time with family, and she attended many of her grandchildren’s sporting events when they were in school. After retirement she enjoyed spending her time reading, doing multiple craft projects, going to bingo and socializing with her many dear friends. The family would like to thank Sharon Ford, Carol Allison, and Linda Craig for their friendship.
