Donna Marie Young (Lincoln), 75, of Attleboro, passed away on Thursday, October 16th, 2025, after a brave fight with a sudden and rare autoimmune disease. She was the cherished daughter of the late Donald E. Lincoln Sr. and Mildred Biss.

Donna leaves behind her devoted daughters, Laura Ashworth and her husband David, and Wendy Taylor and her husband Todd. She was a proud and loving grandmother to Robert Kenerson IV, Elizabeth Kenerson, Alyssa Taylor, Brittany Taylor, Steven Taylor, Nicholas Taylor, and TJ Taylor, and great-grandmother to RJ, Rosemary, and Sky. She shared many years of love and laughter with her longtime partner, Lenny McQuade, and was the devoted sister of the late Richard Lincoln and Donald E. Lincoln Jr.

Donna was a gifted artist whose creativity shone through in everything she did. Whether she was painting, crafting, or adding her special touch to something simple, she had a way of making the world around her more beautiful. She loved to golf and bowl, especially when it meant spending time with her family and sharing laughs together. Some of her favorite memories were the family pasta dinners at her home-those special nights when everyone gathered, filling the house with love, laughter, and the comfort of being together.

Donna centered her life around her family, and the love she gave so abundantly will be remembered and felt for generations to come.

A private celebration of her life will be held at a later date.
