Donna Riggle

Following a beautifully full life, Donna Scheich Riggle joined her son, Steve Riggle, in their heavenly home on September 22, 2024. She is preceded in death by her brothers Reverend Eugene Scheich and John Scheich. She is survived by her husband, Michael Riggle; their children, Annette (Steve) Butler, David (Emlyn) Riggle, Kyle (Jill) Riggle, and Jill (Jason) Marshall; 11 grandchildren, and six great-grandchildren, as well as her siblings Joe (Diana) Scheich, Sister Mary Renee Scheich, Kathy (Gerry) Abel, Rose Anne Scheich, and sister-in-law Jo Ann Scheich (John). When asked about her family, she would always say how blessed she was, but those in her family would confirm that they are, in fact, the blessed ones for having such a magnificent woman in their lives. Her presence was peace, and her actions were love, all things anchored in her deep desire to know her Heavenly Father. And because she knew The Creator, she herself was the epitome of just that. She was always creating something, whether that be floral arranging, her beloved poetry, sewing, her inspired paintings, and so much more. Donna never stopped bringing beauty to life and teaching others to do the same. Even in her final days, she was creating moments of connection and unity, a true testament to how she inspires others to live. Donna was a once-in-a-lifetime woman, wife, mother, grandmother, and friend who will forever be remembered for the ways she made the people around her feel. Those fortunate enough to have met her know the love she housed inside her and so freely gave to others. And while her physical presence is missed so deeply, her legacy lives on in the lives of those she left her lasting imprint on through her radiant spirit.
