Donna Jane Kingland Norland, 86, of Albert Lea, Minnesota, passed away on March 24, 2017, at St. John’s Lutheran Home. A memorial service will be held at a later date.

Donna was born to Art and Ella “land” Kingland in Lake Mills. She married Lowell Norland on January 10, 1951, and subsequently had five children.

Donna lived in northern Iowa and southern Minnesota her entire life. Known as an avid gardener, she enjoyed using her garden produce for cooking. She worked as a home health aide and educator in addition to her role as a farm wife. She loved reading and was involved in Iowa Democratic politics at the local and state level with her husband. Later, she assisted with Alcoholics Anonymous and worked with people in that organization.

She was preceded in death by an infant son, Paul Kingland, and her son, Norman Lowell. Three children, Paul Arthur, of Northwood, Jack Eugene, of Fargo, North Dakota, and Louise Ann Heiken, of Kensett, survive as do her sisters, Marian Cold and Doris McElhinney; as well as six grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.
