Private burial will follow. Visitation is at from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday, April 15, at Johnson's Funeral Home. Donna was born July 2, 1948, in Coleman to Maggie and Buddy Moore. She grew up in her parents' hometown of Ozona where she graduated from high school in 1965. She earned a degree in home economics from Southwest Texas State University in San Marcos. On Dec. 26, 1971, Donna married Pedro Nieri in Ozona United Methodist Church. She is survived by her husband; and by their daughter, Rebecca Hardin-Nieri and her husband, Scott; and two grandchildren, Olivia and Nico of Colorado; and by two brothers and sisters-in-law, Scotty and Linda Moore and Brent and Janet Moore, all of Ozona. Her parents preceded her in death. Donna was a charter member of Community Hills Christian Church, where she was a member of the board of directors and an elder. She was church secretary for a number of years, also worked with area psychologists and United Campus Ministries at ASU. She enjoyed traveling with her husband all over the world on Farm Bureau trips. Donna was a talented homemaker who loved to sew, knit and quilt. Thinking of her grandchildren never failed to bring a smile to her face. Like her Dad, she loved animals, and like her Mom, she loved and respected her family's ranch. The family is grateful for the care and guidance of Dr. Jim Neill regarding Donna's health and wish to express gratitude for the loving ways Hospice of San Angelo held us all during the transition. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that memorial gifts be given to Lake Brownwood Christian Retreat at 9030 Retreat Road, Brownwood, Texas, 76801-0587, or to Crockett County Health and Wellness Center, Box 865, Ozona, Texas, 76943.
