Donald "Donna" Benham Harrell 3/2/1937-06/30/2024
Left this earth Sunday after a long illness and was immediately greeted by her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and her precious parents. Donna was one of the most caring souls you could ever know and was always putting others needs before her own. She was preceded in death by her mother Berney E. Benham and father Donald Benham. She is survived by her beloved husband of 56 years Gennie "Gene" Harrell, Jr., brother Berney Benham,, daughter Diana Harrell, Granddaughter Caitlin Harrell, and precious beloved Great-Granddaughter Madison Moore and host of family in Mobile. She was a life long member of Eastern Valley Baptist Church in Bessemer. She was a wonderful, Godly, caring lady who will be sorely missed. Visitation will be held Friday at McCalla Memorial Funeral Home from 10-11 with service following at 11. Burial at Cedar Hill Cemetery in Bessemer, AL. Rev. Jason Leight officiating
