Donna lived with her parents in Clinton until her move to Divine House for Women in Clinton, MN. in 2000. She loved her roommates and the staff (her bosses!) and enjoyed going on their many outings and shopping trips.
Donna loved her work at Main Street Industries in Clinton and talked a lot about her favorite jobs of folding the bulletins weekly for Holy Rosary Church as well as the news letters for Clinton State Bank. She worked at community job sites in Clinton, Graceville and Ortonville.
Donna enjoyed crocheting, embroidering, playing cards, board games, word search puzzles and loved to paint.
Donna dearly loved her family. She lovingly referred to her siblings as “my dear brother” and “my dear sister”. She was everyone’s friend and a kind and gentle person.
