Donna S. (nee Schall) passed away on January 11, 2026. She was the beloved wife of Richard T.; devoted mother of Robert (Lauren) and James; loving Mom-Mom of Harper; dear sister of Barbara Freeland and Joan Murray (the late Jerry); aunt of Khary Freeland (Caitlin) and Kathryn Murray (Ivo Becica); also survived by great nieces and great nephews.
Donna was truly one-of-a-kind, a force of nature. Always the life of the party, an unapologetic prankster, caring and kindhearted, gregarious and welcoming, she made an indelible impact on all who were fortunate enough to know her.
Donna sacrificed her professional ambitions to raise a family, and devoted herself entirely to her loving husband, Rich, and her two boys, Bob and Jim.
Donna's incredibly warm and outgoing nature brought family and friends together throughout her lifetime, forging enduring relationships and traditions by which her legacy and our fondest memories will be carried through the years to come. She lived for annual summer vacations and holiday gatherings with her immediate family, parents, sisters, niece, nephew, and a close circle of lifelong friends.
Although Donna was taken from us far too soon, we are fortunate and grateful that she was able to spend "Mom-Mom" time with her beautiful granddaughter, Harper.
Relatives and friends may pay their respects to Donna's family on Tuesday, January 20, 2026, 9:30am at Wackerman Funeral Home, 8060 Verree Road, Philadelphia, PA 19111, followed by Words of Remembrance at 11:00am.
In lieu of flowers, it is requested that donations be made in Donna's name to the
Wounded Warrior Project.
