Donna L. Bauer

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Donna L. Bauer, a beacon of unwavering love and support, who departed this world on September 13, 2025. Born in Philadelphia, PA on April 20, 1948, Donna lived a life that was both humble and yet, remarkably profound in its impact on those who were fortunate to know her. She modeled the simple truth that in the end, what matters most is family.

Embodying the essence of loyalty, Donna was a devoted wife to her husband, William, for over 56 years and a cherished mother to her sons, Stephen and the late Joseph. Every day, she would call Stephen, a testament to the deep bond they shared. She was a doting grandmother to Tyler and Madison. Sister of William and John Miller. As a homemaker, she created a home that was a sanctuary of love and warmth for her family. Her love for them was reflected in her favorite pastimes, which included watching soap operas and browsing the Home Shopping Network, activities she enjoyed sharing with them.

Donna's life beautifully illustrated the words of Maya Angelou: "I sustain myself with the love of family." Her life was a testament to the power of familial bonds, the strength of a loving heart, and the quiet resilience of a humble spirit. Her legacy lives on in the hearts of her husband, William, her son, Stephen, and her grandchildren, Tyler and Madison. She now joins her parents, Donald and Lena Miller, and her son, Joseph, in eternal rest.

Relatives and friends may greet Donna's family on Friday, September 19, 2025, from 9:30 am - 10:30 am at Lambie Funeral Home, 8000 Rowland Avenue, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 19136. Her funeral service will follow at 10:30 am. Graveside services will be held at 11:45 am at Sunset Memorial Park, 333 West County Line Road, Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania, 19006.

In celebration of Donna's life, we encourage you to leave your precious memories and upload photos of Donna on the memorial page. Her story is not just one of loss, but of love, strength, and an enduring legacy that will continue to inspire.
