Celebrating Donna’s Life: Funeral Fund
Donation protected
We’re heartbroken to share that Donna J. Brockway passed away on May 20, 2025, due to complications from pneumonia.
Donna was known for her boundless curiosity and the joy she found in life’s simple pleasures. She had a lifelong love of cooking, often filling her home with delicious aromas and offering a seat at her table to anyone in need of comfort or company. She had a keen interest in quirky facts and odd bits of knowledge, always eager to learn something new. One of her deepest passions was the Spanish language, which she studied with enthusiasm and pride by labeling everything in her home with the Spanish translation. She was always willing to lend a helping hand when she could, often giving the last dollar in her purse to those in need.
In recent years, Donna faced significant health challenges that required long-term care. Every available financial resource went toward covering the high cost of her nursing home and medical expenses. Unfortunately, this left nothing behind to cover funeral or burial costs.
We’re humbly asking for help to give Donna the dignified farewell she deserves. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us closer to honoring her memory in the way she deserves and helps lift the financial burden during an already difficult time.
Thank you for your love, support, and kindness.
