Donna MacDonald

Donna MacDonald, 88, passed away peacefully in her sleep on March 18, 2026, in Colorado Springs, after a courageous battle with Parkinson’s disease and dementia. Born November 27, 1937, in Flint, Michigan, to Louie and Marge Porritt,

Donna was one of six children. Though she was a little woman, she had a big heart, a sharp wit, and was truly a force to be reckoned with.

In 1980, she moved to Colorado Springs with her first husband, Earnest Stevens, with whom she shared two sons, Sam and Robert. Following Earnest’s death, Donna found love again with her husband, Roger MacDonald.

Donna spent her final years with Roger, a dedicated husband who devoted all his time and energy to her care and comfort.

Donna was known for her green thumb and the beautiful rose bushes she tended with care. She was a regular at local bingo games and was an artist at heart, spending countless hours quilting and crocheting for those she loved. She also possessed a deep love for nature and a passion for traveling.

Donna was preceded in death by her parents; her first husband, Earnest; and four siblings. She is survived by her husband, Roger; sons, Sam and Robert; sister, Rose; six grandchildren; nine great-grandchildren; and two great-great-grandchildren.

Celebration of Donna will be @ John Venezia Park Pavilion House Briargate Blvd & Union, In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to Pikes Peak Hospice or The Michael J. Fox Foundation
