Donna Marie Wolgamott

1928 - 2020

Donna Marie (Bohn) Wolgamott passed away on Oct. 21, 2020, at the age of 92. She lived a full, wonderful life!
She was born April 19, 1928, in Vineburg, Calif. She had lived in Monterey County for over 85 years. She met the love of her life, Russ Wolgamott, while going to Salinas High (graduating Class of 1947). They had been married over 60 years before he passed away eight years ago.
She was a homemaker most of her life, but did work part time for the Soledad School district after the last of her seven children started school. She later worked with her husband operating Russ' TV Service until they retired.
Her life was full of camping trips, which her children remember fondly. She also went on fishing trips to Alaska and the Yukon. Other adventures Donna and Russ enjoyed included Cruises to Alaska and the Panama Canal, where they were able to spend time with some of their adult children.
Donna is preceded in death by her husband, Russ Wolgamott; her parents, Paul and Viola Bohn; her sister, Marlene Doerr; and her brother, Larry Bohn.
She is survived by her seven children: Kathy, Harold (Cindy), Diane, Linda (Steve), Rose Ann (Ray), Rose Marie, Duane (Brenda). Also survived by 10 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren.
Donna's children especially want to thank Doctor Christine Ponzio, who always took wonderful care of their mom. They also send their gratitude to Hospice for being there when needed. Donna's daughters, Rose Marie and Linda, along with granddaughters, Kathy and Karen, were always there to take good care of her, which enabled her to stay in her own home throughout life.
Private, family burial will be held at a later date.
