Donna enjoyed life and was a very intelligent and artistic lady. She graduated from NSU with a Bachelor's Degree in 1956 then went on to the University of Tulsa and earned her Master's Degree in Education. Donna enjoyed education and enjoyed her time as a teacher. When it came to her artistic side, she could do almost all things "art". She enjoyed painting, cross stitching, knitting, crocheting, and just about any other art or craft that you could think of she had done or could do. She was a leader and loved being involved in many different organizations and events. She always held a leadership role in her church whether she was a Sunday School Teacher or in charge of the youth. She loved her church and enjoyed spending time with her church family. She was somewhat addicted to cooking shows and often tried to cook the different recipes that she would see on the television, as she thoroughly enjoyed cooking. She enjoyed reading and would try to read as many books as she possibly could, she also enjoyed sailing as her and Bill would go out on the water in the sailboat and spend many a day. Donna touched many lives over the years and will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.
