Donna Herb Rooker Obituary



Donna Marie Herb Rooker, age 53, died suddenly at the University of Maryland Baltimore Washington Medical Center at 6:00 pm on Thursday, April 16th after a courageous fight with a spinal cord injury. Donna was born May 11, 1961 in Baltimore, Maryland and a graduate of Southern High School. She worked for the L-3 Corporation as a Web Developer and Graphic Artist. She lived in Millersville, Maryland. Donna loved to crochet and do crafts. She was a big Orioles baseball fan and loved to travel. She organized and worked on many charity fundraising projects. She had a big heart and a smile that shined like the sun. She was honest, thoughtful, caring, and she told it like it was. Her attention to detail and the way she strived to make those around her know they were loved and thought of made her a lady like no other. We will all miss you Donna. You were taken from us too soon. You touched our lives and made this world a better place. She is survived by her loving husband George; mother, Patricia Herb; sister, Mary Ann Herb Vanmeter; uncles, Charlie Herb, George Herb, Ronald Herb, and Robert Herb; numerous cousins and her faithful friend and companion Maya. The family will receive visitors at the family owned Singleton Funeral & Cremation Services, P.A., 1 2nd Avenue SW (at Crain Hwy) Glen Burnie on Thursday, April 23rd from 3-5 & 7-9 PM. A Celebration of Life Service will be held on Friday, April 24th, 10 AM, in the funeral home chapel. Interment Cedar Hill Cemetery. For more information, please visit www.singletonfuneralhome.com
