Upon retiring from her business, she enjoyed spending her time with her family. She loved attending sporting events, birthday parties, and gathering her immediate and extended family around the table for holidays and Sunday dinners.

Donna had many hobbies, including, gardening, cooking, fishing, canning, playing games, and quilting. She was a farm girl at heart. She and Jerry also traveled together, exploring many foreign places.
