With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Donna Marlene Eckersley, (nee Bell), beloved wife, Mom, sister, Aunt, and Granny.

On April 6, 2016, they celebrated 59 loving years of marriage. Together they had six children, Laura (John), Bruce (Christine), Michael (Edwina), Debbie, Donna (Dave), and Karell (Enzo), 19 grandchildren (and spouses/partners), and 5 great grandchildren. Donna is also survived by two sisters, Sharron (Les), and Sylvia, who were her best friends. Answering to many names, Mom loved her large family with all her heart and made anyone who entered her life a part of it.
