Donna Lee Gilmore

Donna Lee Gilmore, 77, wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend raced into the arms of Jesus Saturday, July 25, 2020. God has a new cheerleader in heaven encouraging us in running the race for our Lord down here.

Donna was born Oct. 21, 1942, in Pocatello, Idaho, to her parents Lee and Jean Meadows. Donna was the oldest of four: Linda, Jan and Tom. She loved sharing life and love with her incredible husband Bob and was central in the excitement of her five children's lives: Wendy, Suzanne, Anne, Daniel and David. She was the grandmother of 33 grandchildren and six great-grandchildren.

Donna was never short on fun and adventure. She had a rare zest for life with a very full calendar of helping people. Her life was infectious to others. She had time for others and had a special way of making each of her family feel strong, loved and encouraged. She loved encouraging others to live their life walking fully with their savior and Lord Jesus Christ.

Donna had an impact on many, many lives. She will be missed here on earth, but I'm sure she was overjoyed to run into the arms of her mother and father, as well as her grandson Luke, in heaven. Jesus has much in store for her there.

A very special thank you to all the caregivers who helped Bob take care of Donna at home in the last difficult year of her life.

A time to remember Donna is being hosted at Riverview Church, 4980 Sweetgrass Lane, in Bonsall, at 4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 19.
