Donna Asher Obituary
Jim and Donna sold their pharmacies and relocated to Alaska, where Jim served as a pharmacist in Glennallen. In 2010, they moved to Eagle River, Alaska, in retirement. Donna was always active in the churches and community service organizations where she lived. Donna was a valued member of the Eagle River Presbyterian Church, where she served as a Deacon.
Donna is survived by her husband, Jim; daughter, Dawn (Asher) Appleby and her husband Michael; son, Bryan Asher and his wife Tammy; three grandchildren, Kirsten Asher, Brandon Asher and Michael Appleby; two great-grandchildren, Corey and Brady Appleby; and their relatives in Nebraska and Iowa.
A Funeral Service for Donna is scheduled for Jan. 31, 2019, at 4 p.m., at the Eagle River Presbyterian Church, 12836 Old Glenn Highway in Eagle River. The family requests that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Alzheimer's Association.
