It is with deepest sorrow that we announce the passing of our mother, Donna Mae Tomich, 85 on November 29, 2025.
Donna was born in Akron, Ohio on Christmas Day, 1939 to the late Peter and Rose Mehok. She was a graduate of East High School and enjoyed a successful career at Novar Electronics, retiring after many years as a circuit board supervisor. She was a member of Maranatha Bible Church, where she cherished regular Bible study and fellowship with her church family.
Along with her parents, she is preceded in death by her husband, Walter Tomich; son Michael Wozniak; sisters, Betty (Jean) Esposito, Shirley Clark and Rosemary Vance; brother, Richard Mehok and grandson, William Kyle Middleton.
She is survived by her loving daughters, Diane (Hank) Middleton and Theresa (Larry) Seed; sister, Deloris (Rod) Witten; grandsons, Zachary (Victoria) Middleton and Patrick (Hunter) Seed and great-grandson, Maverick Middleton. Donna had many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends who will miss her dearly.
Donna's daughters were her most treasured accomplishment and they, along with her grandsons and great-grandson were her pride and joy.
Donna spent the final five years of her life as a resident of The Apostolic Christian Home in Rittman, OH. Our family would like to thank all the staff for their wonderful care and for the love they brought to her life. For this, we are forever grateful.
