Donna Robinson Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Donna Robinson was born in East Berlin, Pennsylvania on Tuesday, May 29, 1945, one of thirteen children to Stuart and June (Dorey) Chronister. She passed from this life on Wednesday, September 30, 2020 in Tulsa. Donna left home when she was quite young but eventually worked and received her GED. She and her first husband owned two service stations that Donna helped with for ten years and then she managed one herself. She also worked at Lowrance in Tulsa for five years. She had one son, Frankie, and added two bonus children, Nicole and Jason, when she and Richard married on September 3, 1988 in Tulsa. Donna loved her kitchen. It was truly her domain. She would enjoy making meals for the family and baking for the holidays. She always made sure the family for Thanksgiving and Christmas had a pumpkin pie, green bean casserole, stuffing, turtle treats and cookies. Donna enjoyed traveling. She traveled to the Grand Canyon, Key West, Hawaii, and Pennsylvania just to name a few. Some of her most memorable times was of the vacations she and Rich (her husband) took together. One of Donna’s favorite pastimes was spending time at the lake. She enjoyed many summers on her boat cruising and finding the best fishing spots on Lake Eufaula. She enjoyed time on the lake, fellowship with friends and fishing with Rich and her sister Sue. Donna also was a caregiver. Many times in her life she assisted family or friends. She took care of her mother before she passed in 2001. She helped with her grandchildren taking them to and from school, sporting events, and band events. Recently she helped a former neighbor that had been moved into a nursing home where she ran errands and purchased items for her. This quickly grew into her assisting with others at the nursing home. She loved to shop. She would spend all day out going from store to store but only come home with a couple of items. But first and foremost, she was a wife, mother, and grandma. She loved taking care of husband, son, and grandkids. She always saw to their needs before her own. She truly spoiled them all. Donna will truly be missed by all who loved her and were loved by her.
