Donna moved to Waterville, Iowa in 1972 and later made her life in Decorah. On December 31, 1988 she married Jim Berg. Through the years she held a variety of jobs and was able to be an involved “Nana” which was nearest and dearest to her heart. She loved kids, especially her grandchildren and there was hardly a conversation that didn’t involve them and their academic achievements or most recent activities. Donna loved to talk, smile and laugh. She found beauty in life, nature, animals, crafting, reading and most of all spending her days being with and playing with her grandchildren. The love and joy her grandchildren brought her was immeasurable.
Donna was a member of Stone Ridge Community Church and had a deep-rooted faith in God.
