With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Donna Jean Osterholt (née Sutfin), who left this world peacefully on June 23, 2025, surrounded by the love of her family.

Born on January 8, 1939, to Sam and Arlene Sutfin, Donna was one of five siblings: Sam (Junior), Jimmy, Darlene, and Lois. She was married to William L. Osterholt in December of 1958, and together they raised six children: Lorri Connell (Ross), Karla Holmes (Ed), Fred Osterholt, Tami Simonson (Kevin), Craig Osterholt (Cathi), and Joy Osterholt (late partner Bill).

Donna was the proud grandmother of Hali (partner Davie), Kendra (Jamie), Marli (Thomas), Sumer (partner Jeremy), Erin, Skylyn (Logan), and Kailey (partner Dakota) Her great-grandchildren include Brody, Bree, Ashton, Madden, Kingston, Bayla, Lily, Bree, Riley, Veda, Delaney, Emmit, Easton, and Lynlee. Her great-grandson Lincoln preceded her in death. She was loved by all in the extended Osterholt family.

Donna was happiest when surrounded by her family. She was known for telling it like it is, and one of her most cherished traits was her ability to make anyone laugh. She enjoyed puzzles, NASCAR, and the Green Bay Packers—simple things that brought her peace.

The family would like to extend heartfelt thanks to Agrace Hospice Care & CNA-Florence, Brightstar, and Sheila for their compassionate care throughout the last year of Donna's life. Deepest thanks also go to her daughters—Karla, Tami, and Joy—whose tireless, round-the-clock care made it possible for Donna to remain comfortable at home.

She will be missed deeply by all who knew her and remembered always for her humor and honesty.
