      She was first employed with Lawrence University and then as a sales clerk for J.C. Penny for twenty-eight years retiring in 1998.

      She enjoyed solving word searches and crossword puzzles. In her younger years DonnaMae and her husband, Charles, loved to dance. She always looked forward to lunches with friends and the First Friday of the Month Breakfast Club.

She is further survived by her dear friend, Jean and many other dear family members.

      In addition to her parents, DonnaMae was preceded in death by her husband, Charles, in February of 2000; her brother, Robert, and her granddaughter, Angie.
