DONNA LAWRENCE
1957 - 2018
Obituary
Donna Marie Lawrence, 60, of Newton,
loving wife, mother and grandmother, passed away on Monday (Jan. 1,
2018) in her home after a long struggle with cancer. Donna was born
on Jan. 19, 1957, in Millersburg, Ohio.
Donna will be so missed by her many
close friends and family. Donna's faith in her Lord Jesus was so
important to her and it gives us so much comfort that she is finally
at peace with her Lord. She especially lived each day for the love of
her life, her granddaughter Lillie. Lillie gave such joy to her
grandma.
Donna is survived by her husband, Kurt,
whom she married in October 1998; son, Bobby (Charity) Jones and
granddaughters, Lillie and Abby; sisters: Darlene (Duane) Wilbur,
Patty (Mark) Frazier and Tammy (John) Klaiber; brother, Keith (Dawn)
Lang; and several nieces and nephews, all of Ohio. Donna is also
survived by three stepsons: Abe, Jon (Karry), and Ryun (Annie) and
Leia Lawrence (Dan Stucky), all of Kansas, and three
stepgrandchildren.
Donna is preceded in death by her
parents, Arnet and Clara Lang of Ohio.
The family requests all donations be
given to Dr. Mattar and the caring staff at the Cancer Center of
Kansas in care of Petersen Funeral Home.
Graveside Committal service will be 1

memorial service will follow at 2 p.m. at Grace Community Church,
with Pastors Steve Friesen and Jack Napier presiding. Visitation will
