Donna Sprague Obituary
Donna had a profound impact on her community, where she was cherished for her sense of humor and her ability to make everyone feel like family. An avid gardener, she had a unique ability to nurture plants and flowers to their fullest beauty. Donna was also an incredible cook, often found preparing large, loving meals for her entire family.
She leaves behind a loving family: her daughters, Karen and Phillis; sons, Scott and Travis Sprague; and her grandchildren, Christy, Eric, Jacob, Ryan, Daniel, among others, who will miss her deeply.
Visitation will be held on Wednesday, October 23rd, with a celebration of life to follow on Thursday, October 24th at the Mitchell-Hughes Funeral Home in Marion, Illinois, reserved for close friends and family. The Mitchell-Hughes Funeral Home is assisting with the arrangements, ensuring Donna's memory is honored with dignity and love.
