She was a 1957 graduate of The Rayen School and dedicated her life to raising and caring for her family.
Donna found her greatest joy in her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and her beloved dogs — including her 'granddogs.' She especially loved decorating for Christmas, often filling her home with joy and cheer using extremely large trees and festive decor. Donna also had a green thumb and enjoyed growing flowers in pots throughout her home, always tending to them with care and pride.
Donna is survived by her three daughters, Kim Bukovi (Larry), Pam (Robert, Sr.) Jones and Lisa Bukovi (Debbie) all of Youngstown; her five grandchildren, Robert Jones and Louis (Taylor) Jones, Michael Winland, Zachary (Marilyn) Bukovi and Destiny Lumby; her sister, Linda Diamond of Canfield; five great-grandchildren, Carter, Asher, Theo, Silas and Aniyah; her beloved beagle, Sassy and many extended family members.
Donna will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved her.
Her husband of 53 years, Louis T. Bukovi, whom she married May 8, 1958, died July 13, 2011; her son, Thomas 'TJ' Bukovi, is also deceased.
