DONNA ZEBROWSKI Obituary

ZEBROWSKI, Donna Jean Of Maynard, MA passed away on Feb. 9, 2022. Donna was a cherished wife, sister, aunt, friend and cousin whom left all of those who loved her on earth to join those waiting for her in heaven. All of us who were lucky enough to know Donna felt the warmth of her kindness and the size of her heart. Above all, Donna loved her family. She leaves behind her husband of 34 years Kim; her sister Val and brother-in-Law Bob, her most beloved brother Robert and sister-in-law Deborah; and her nieces Rachel and Alanna and nephew Connor, to whom she was more of a second Mom than an Aunt. This September, we plan to have a Celebration of Donna's Life in Boston. As a family, we shared countless beautiful years and memories in her favorite place, Bar Harbor/Acadia National Park, Maine where, as was so beautifully said by Bruce Cockburn, we "Leave no footsteps where we go, only where we've been, a faint and fading glow." Those who wish, may make memorial contributions in Donna's name to friendsofacadia.org. Updates at actonfuneralhome.com

Dear Bob, Val, Rachel, Charlie, Jake, Connor, and Ali,
Mike and I send our sincerest condolences during this most difficult time for your family. I will always remember how funny and kind Donna was whenever our families were together. Her smile and heart lit up every one she encountered and every space she entered. Our prayers are with you.
Love,

I am so sorry to see Donna Jean leave us so soon, but there are so many loved ones greeting her in Heaven right now. I am so grateful my daughter, Britney, had a chance to meet her a few years ago and get to know the warm loving personality behind her smile. My time spent with Donna was mostly limited to our childhood when our families would visit together in their home on Revere street and I would get to play with Donna. Donna was a younger 1st cousin of mine and we were closer in age than Val who was a toddler at the time. Donna was always cheerful and funny. She was genuine. We used to play church (white Necco wafers for the Host) and house. I remember her being very honest and generous with sharing her time and play items. My prayers for peace and healing go out to Kim, Val, Robert and the entire family. Phyllis Coleman & Family

My heart breaks for all of you. I only had the pleasure of Donna´s
company on her visits to Houston with Val and Bob´s family, but she surely left an impression on me. Wonderful lady, a joy to be in her presence. I´m very sorry for your loss.
