Donna Jeanne Anderson

Oh Donna, Oh Donna!... She loved that song from Ritchie Valens!

Donna Jeanne Anderson passed away, December 2, 2025. She leaves behind her true love and devoted Husband of 64 years, Larry Anderson. Her Daughters Kelly Berkley and Jayme McDonough will miss her forever.

Preceding Donna's death are her Parents, Carl Blomberg and Ruth Blomberg Bradford, and her sweet daughter, Karry Anderson.

She simply adored her kids: Todd and Kelly Berkley and Jayme McDonough; grandkids: Blaine and Kristin Berkley, Garrett and Alison Berkley, Richlieu Berkley, Jalen McDonough, Nate and Peyton Boettcher, and Quinn McDonough; and her great grandchildren: Saylor, Jameson, Afton, Harlow and Kruger Berkley.

Her siblings and their spouses: Jim and Marilynn Blomberg, Nancy Kleffman, Denny and Joen Blomberg, and many nieces and nephews, were cherished.

Donna was born August 29, 1941, in Hibbing, Minn. Over time, she and Larry lived in St. Louis Park, Minnetonka, Forest Lake, and lastly, Watertown, Minn.

After raising their daughters, they enjoyed traveling, visiting family and friends, playing cards, buying pull-tabs, and helping others with a variety of needs. They hosted Holidays for decades and loved every minute. Watching their family grow with grands and greats, was a joy. Donna leaves behind many, many loved ones, and will be greatly missed. Her trademark 'HOT PINK' lipstick will always be remembered!

Donna preferred no service. Memorials preferred to American Diabetes Association in honor of daughter Karry.
