Donna leaves behind her husband Carl, her sons Glenn and Aaron, step daughter Jennifer, and son-in-law Ken Northup. Her grandchildren Chase, Jaxson, Lake, Mason, Alex, Brayden and Kaydence.

Donna will be missed dearly by her mother Joan (Margaret) Delaney (Rutkowsky), her sister Sandra Rutkowsky, sister-in-law Kym Calder-Rutkowsky, her niece Sherri Keown, nephews Cory Keown, Matthew Hughes, and Tye Calder-Rutkowsky.

Her canine Clarity will miss her immensely.

Because of Donna’s love for animals, they ask that donations be made in her name to any SCPA.
