Donna Lea (LaRock) Worzala, age 72, of Wabeno, WI, formerly a long-time resident of Milwaukee, WI, passed away with family by her side on March 16, 2018.

Donna was born on July 21, 1943 in Wabeno, WI. She grew up in Wabeno and moved to Milwaukee to finish high school. In Milwaukee, she met the love of her life and they married in August of 1962. Donna and her husband continued to live in Milwaukee where they raised their three children; Debbie, Rick, and Dana.

Donna was a very dedicated and hard worker. She retired from ITW Shakeproof and starting traveling the world. Donna was an incredibly loving and devoted mother and grandmother. Her family was her life and she was proud of each of her children and grandchildren. Donna enjoyed spending time with her family, as they were very important to her. She always put her family first.

Donna was known for her altruism, words of wisdom, and positive, loving nature. She was a carefree individual who loved a glass of Rhine wine with a slice of lemon. Her infamous homemade shrimp salad, cabbage rolls, and spaghetti sauce will never be forgotten by her family. Her love for traveling earned her the title of "Gypsy." Germany, Croatia, Poland, and Italy were just a few of the places she had ventured. In the winter, she left her home in Wisconsin to fly south (Tennessee) to spend memorable time with her sisters. She will by deeply missed by all of those who loved and knew her.

Donna was the beloved wife of the late Ralph Worzala, devoted mother of the late Debra Laing, Rick Worzala and his wife Vicki, and Dana Miller and her husband Brett. She was loving grandmother "Mooma" of Jessica Laing, Rick Worzala, Tony Worzala, Angela Laing, Collin Miller, and Cameron Miller and great-grandmother to Peyton Worzala. Donna was also very special to Lynn and Joyce LaRock and all of her sisters and brothers.

Family and friends will gather at St. Ambrose Catholic Church 1793 Elm Ave Wabeno, WI 54566 on May 12th. From 9:00-10:00 am, visitors may come to pay respects. The funeral service begins at 10:00 a.m. with the burial service to follow.
