April 18, 1937 - March 28. 2017


It is with sad hearts that we announce the passing of our mother, Donna Stewart. Mom died peacefully in 100 Mile District General Hospital with family by her side.

Donna was born in Vernon to Dan and Dorothy Jackson, the second of 7 children. The family spent the next 9 years in Kelowna before settling at Adams Lake. Donna completed her high school years at Chase, where she met many lifelong friends.

After marriage, she moved to Pritchard, where she soon became a hardworking, loving mother to 6 children. In 1984, she made the move to 100 Mile House, where she resided for the rest of her life.

Donna was predeceased by her parents; infant son, Doug; and brother, Billy.

She leaves to mourn her partner of 31 years, Merritt Leask; her children, Dan (Sharon), Willie, Heather, Hamish (Lila), Dale (April), and Tim; her step-children, Michael (Crystal), Michele (Don), Mark, Wayne (Bonnie), Shawn (Christina) and James; sisters, Shirley, June and Vivian; brothers, Ron and Dan.

Donna also leaves to mourn her many grandchildren and great grandchildren, who were the loves of her life.

Missing her, also, will be the friends who helped her in so many ways; Dave, Adrian and Ruth.

Donna will be laid to rest at a later date at the Chase Cemetery next to her infant son.
