Obituary: Grubb, Donna Mae

Age 83

GRUBB, Donna Mae (Age 83) Our wife, mother and grandmother went to heaven on January 19, 2015.

She was born on August 15, 1931.

She was the daughter of Ralph and Thelma Plank.

She spent her childhood in Clarkston, WA with her parents and two brothers, Keith and Wayne Plank.

She graduated from Clarkston High School.

In 1950 she married Dean Grubb.

They raised three daughters, Danene, Diana and Donita, and made their girls their top priority.

She was the center of many wonderful memories through the years going on family vacations, boating and skiing.

She never missed a family get together or celebration and our celebrations will not be the same without her.

Donna is preceded in death by her parents, brother Keith and sister-in-law Gloria Plank.

She is survived by her husband of 64 years; as well as her daughters Danene (Thomas) Wideman, Diana (Craig) Miller and Donita (Paul) Becklund.

She adored her grandchildren Ryan Wideman, Joey (Josh) Bocook, Michelle (Alan) Miller, J.W.

(Melanie) Miller, Tim (Ashley) Miller, Ricky (Brooke) Becklund, Aimee (Nick) Solano and Heather (Brian) Liddell.

She also had 12 great-grandchildren: Ashley, Conner, Emma, Addison, Evan, Brenner, Brielle, Jack, Aidan, Caitlyn, Lincoln and Luke.

We are sad for the great-grandchildren who will not know this remarkable and loving grandmother.

We will celebrate her life with a Memorial Service on Friday, January 23 at 2 p.m. at Heritage Funeral Chapel.

Memorial contributions can be made to the Union Gospel Mission.
