Donna Ann Moorman, age 97, of Minster, Ohio passed away peacefully on June 1, 2024, at Elmwood Assisted Living in New Bremen, Ohio.

Donna was born July 16, 1926, in McCartyville, Ohio, the youngest of Louis and Anna (Flaute) Gudorf's 10 children. She married Paul Moorman on October 26, 1946; he preceded her in death in 2006.

Also passing before Donna were her nine siblings, granddaughter Leah Moorman (1997), and son-in-law Bruce Starr (2023).

Donna is survived by two daughters, Sue Starr of Dayton, Ohio; Margaret Lammers of Saint Joseph, Mich.;, and three sons, Paul (Lisa) of Portage, Mich.; Daniel (Susan) of West Chester, Ohio; and Tom (Anne Marie) of Camden, Ala. She is also survived by 14 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren, a sister-in-law Alice (Hartings) Moorman, and many nieces and nephews.

Donna graduated from Minster High School in 1944, and subsequently attended St. Elizabeth School of Nursing to pursue her dream of becoming a surgical nurse. Sadly, her mother passed away unexpectedly in 1945, at which time she returned home to care for her father. She was a member of St. Augustine's Catholic Church, serving on the Parish Council, and as a lector and lay distributor. She was a member of the St. Monica Society and the Catholic Ladies of Columbia. Donna volunteered for many years at the Heritage Center in Minster. She was an avid reader and well-known by family, neighbors, and friends for her wonderful pies. Donna worked as an administrative assistant for the Minster Insurance Agency for 20 years.

The Funeral Mass is Saturday, June 8, at 9:30 a.m. at St. Augustine Catholic Church. A burial will follow at the church cemetery.
