Donna was born November 6, 1942 to Norman and Pearl Brown in Camrose. Donna married Robert on July 29, 1962. They had two children, Darren and Shelley. In 1975 they decided to get into real estate, and they moved their family and business into Camrose. Donna worked for Solar Realty then later moved to work for the Feeders Association for many years. Then they moved to Stettler where they ran a boarding house. This is where she spent most of her years. She treated her boarders like children, and was like a mother to them. Donna loved to watch the birds, grow flowers and pick weeds.
Donna broke her hip in June 2012. This is when she decided with her family to move to Hardisty Parkland Manor, so she could have the comfort of her family near her. Donna found comfort in her family and friends. She fell ill and was diagnosed with Leukemia.
