Donna was born in Shelby, North Carolina on January 15, 1950, daughter of the late Carl and Thelda (Hovis) Allman. She married Richard M.

Donna was a woman of deep faith, devoted to her church where she was actively involved in Sunday school and many other programs. She served faithfully as secretary at Faith Baptist Church for many years, always with a kind and giving spirit. In her quiet moments, Donna enjoyed reading and working on puzzles. Above all, she cherished her family and found her greatest joy in her grandchildren, who held a very special place in her heart.
