Donna met Bob on a blind date in Oklahoma City in the fall of 1970. It was a whirlwind romance which led to them getting married on December 31st, 1970. It was a blissful marriage of 52 years. Her passion was taking care of her family (3) men (Bob, Todd, and Tracy), cooking, friends, and let's not forget bowling where the world got to see a glimpse of the wonderful woman she was. She loved Colorado and spent a majority of her life next to the Rocky Mountains.
A visitation for Donna will be held Saturday, September 9, 2023 from 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM, followed by a Funeral Service at 1:00 PM at Ascension Lutheran Church, 2505 N Circle Drive Colorado Springs, CO 80909. Hope Fostvedt and Honor Fostvedt will be greeters.
