Donna Marie Lambert, age 77, a lifelong resident of Lowell, passed away peacefully at her home on August 30, 2025, surrounded by her loving family. She was the beloved wife of Raymond Lambert with whom she enjoyed 57 years of marriage.

She was born in Lowell on March 2, 1948 and was the daughter of the late Alexander and Simone (Vezina) Gialousis.

Donna was raised in Lowell MA and attended St. Michael's Elementary School and Lowell High School. She was a hospital trained respiratory therapist for many years. She loved to keep busy and also enjoyed doing banquet work alongside her own mother. She loved working at Goodwill helping others. She also took pride working in a local lead poison prevention program. She was ordained as a spiritual minister and loved most of all helping others by providing guidance and offering a listening ear. She knew just the right thing to say to people to reassure them and help ease their pain. She had warm hands and a soft empathetic smile.

She enjoyed spending time with her family, especially her extended family. The best memories of her were always our yearly vacations at Old Orchard Beach. She loved the ocean, music, traveling especially around New England, mystical shops and spiritual books, astrology, current events, her cats, and most of all- her beloved family and friends.

In addition to her loving husband, Raymond, she is survived by her oldest daughter, Melanie Lally and her husband Michael Lally, her two grandchildren Hannah Lally and Jordan Lally, all from East Greenwich, Rhode Island, her youngest daughter Melissa Mistretta and her husband Mark Mistretta, from Dracut MA, her brother Alexander Gialousis and his wife Mary Ann from Port St. Lucie Florida, her niece Christine Marie Osborne and her son Yvan Tejada and her husband Stephen Osborne all from Manchester NH, her nephew Michael Gialousis and his wife Brynn and their three children Brady, Mia and Beckett, from Oklahoma City, OK, brother-in-law Ronald Lambert and his lifelong partner Glenn Szegedy of Dracut MA, her beloved cousin, and dear friend Frances Ducharme and her husband Jerry from Dracut MA.

She was the sister-in-law of the deceased Richard Lambert from Lowell, MA.

Visiting hours will be held on Friday, September 5, 2025 from 5pm to 8pm at the BLAKE CHELMSFORD FUNERAL HOME, 24 Worthen Street, CHELMSFORD.
