JEFFERSON — Donna Marie (Durst) Cornell, formerly of South Chestnut St., died Wednesday, Oct. 28, 2009, at Jefferson Healthcare.
She was the daughter of Frank and Viola (Reinhart) Durst and had been a Jefferson resident most of her life.
Donna had three loves in her life: God, family and gardening. She also enjoyed a good book and traveling. She was a member of the Jefferson Garden Club and when her children were young, she was a den mother for the scouts, an active member in the Jefferson Band and Athletic Boosters and participated in the Falcon Follies. Christmas brought her much joy, as she decorated her home in her own unique style and enjoyed having family gatherings.
A baptized Catholic, she believed that you could serve the Lord in more than one church and became a member of the First Baptist Church of Jefferson, where she served on the Mission Board and Youth Club.
Her survivors include three sons, Robert Y. (Nancy) of Jefferson, Garth (Sherry) of Ashtabula (Saybrook Township) and James (Joyce) of Dorset; one daughter, Dona (Charles) Borsukoff of Jefferson; six grandchildren, Robert Y. Jr., Roger, Heidi, Alexis, Cassandre and Charlie; one great-grandson, Chase Wilber; three great-granddaughters, Ava Wilber, Sienna Moore and Kailyn Cornell; and one sister, Lois Olson of Lakewood.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Robert on June 5, 2005; two brothers, Frank Durst and Edward Durst; one sister, Carole Barnhardt; and her parents.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated 10 a.m., Monday, Nov. 2nd, at St. Joseph Calasanctus Catholic Church, 32 E. Jefferson St., Jefferson, Ohio, with the Rev. Fr. Stephen Wassie, presiding. Burial will be in Oakdale Cemetery.
Calling Hours will be from 4 to 6 p.m., Sunday, Nov. 1st, at ZABACK-DUCRO FUNERAL HOME, 500 W. Prospect St., Ashtabula.
Memorial contributions may be made to Henderson Memorial Public Library, 54 E. Jefferson St., Jefferson, Ohio 44007 or the Jefferson Fire Department, 98 E. Jefferson St., Jefferson, Ohio 44007.
The family would like to express their thanks to the staff of Jefferson Healthcare for the loving care and attention given to their mother.
