Donna was born on April 23, 1933 in Alamo, NV, at the Stewart home. She was the oldest of the four children born to Paul Edward Stewart and Ethel Bonne Stewart. She was preceded in death by her Sister Carma Eizman and her two daughters, Donna Dee Pulley and Ronda Lee Gardner.

Donna lived her early and later years in Alamo, NV, with many moves in multiple states in between. She attended BYU after graduating from High School. She served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Las Vegas NV. With a deep love for her family and ancestry she devoted a lot of time to genealogy and family history. In her later years she attended Southern Utah University in Cedar City Utah and retired from the postal service at the Southern Utah University. Donna was a loving person who especially loved babies and children. If there was a baby or child around she would be holding or loving him. Some of her hobbies were collecting things, sewing, and doing jigsaw puzzles.
The family wishes to thank all of those who have shown love and concern for Donna. In lieu of flowers, donations to help with burial costs would be greatly appreciated. Donations can be given or mailed to Yvonne Mason P.O. Box 187, Alamo, NV 89001.
