Donna WING Obituary

WING, Donna Lee born October 22, 1954 in Bozeman, Montana, died January 22, 2018, Tucson, Arizona. It is with great sadness we said goodbye to a wonderful daughter, mother, sister and friend. She is survived by her mother and stepfather, Shirley and Bill Ambrose; her daughters, Victoria Wing (James Bond), and Cassandra Wing (Jeff Heidel); four beautiful grandchildren, James, Brook, Remington and Amelia. Her sister, Holly Allen (Doug). Also survived by her nieces, Dawn Porter (Colin), and Laurie Koch (Matt) and her nephew, Ryan Allen; great-niece and nephews; stepbrother, JW Ambrose; her aunts, and uncle. She was predeceased by her grandparents, father, and her stepsister. Donna grew up on ranches in both Arizona and Montana. She continued to work on ranches in Montana, Arizona, Maine and Missouri. Besides loving family and friends, Donna had a passion for books, art and was an excellent horsewoman. She received her Degree in Special Education from Central Missouri University, but was unable to fulfill that dream due to the onset of MS. Her friends and neighbors at Sunnyslope Apartments were absolute angels watching over her the last few years. The family would like to thank Casa de la Luz Hospice for their special care of Donna. We will celebrate her life on Saturday, March 31, 2018 at 11:00 a.m., at Holly's home, Call 520-419-6517 for directions. Remembrances may be made to the Multiple Sclerosis Society.

I will miss my mom so very much. She was a great person and mother. It's hard to imagine my life without her but I find comfort in knowing that she is in heaven watching over me, my sister, and her grandchildren.

I miss you so much! I know you are dancing in heaven and I hope Bang is there with you so you can go riding again. I will never forget our long conversations and our good hard laughs. You were the strongest person and fought so hard. Love you always!
