Donna's obituary

It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of Donna Ferry, a hardworking and dedicated woman, on February 6, 2024. Donna was born on November 2, 1945, and throughout her life, she became known for her dedication to her family and for the wisdom she shared to always care for each other. Her legacy lives on, most vibrantly in her strong family.

She was predeceased by her beloved spouses, Leo Gagnier and Salvatore Ferry, as well as her mother, Jean Katherine Gravlee. Despite the distance and lost connection, she held onto the precious memories of time spent with her many brothers, sisters, nieces, and nephews and remembered them with love and kindness.

Donna is survived by her devoted children: daughters Lynda Paglia, Sandra Chenot, and Karen Bonventre, and her son Steven Paglia. Her love and dedication will continue to live on through her grandchildren: Bobbie-Jo Dombek, Taylor Paglia, Samantha Paglia, Anna Gow, Stephanie Gow, Angela Gow, Melanie Wellington, Arianna Paglia, and Micheal Paglia. Each one of them represents a part of her hearty spirit and the best of her lessons in life.

Among her many accomplishments, Donna was especially proud of her family, always putting them before everything else. Her life was a testament to this dedication, and it was reflected in the solid network of strong and caring relationships she cultivated.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that donations be made for funeral and cremation expenses at the following URL: https://everloved.com/life-of…. Even in her departure, Donna would appreciate your thoughtfulness in supporting the family she loved so dearly.

Donna's passing leaves behind a gap that can never be filled, but her spirit, lessons, and love will continue to live on in the family that she so cherished. Her journey may have ended, but her story continues in the lives of those she touched with her love and dedication. Rest in peace, Donna.
