She was born on August 15, 1961, in Chicago, Illinois to Fred and Juanita Boles. Donna brought such joy, laughter, and warmth into everyone's lives. She had one of the kindest souls. Donna worked at Reedsburg Area Medical Center as a dietitian until she retired and moved to Arizona in 2019. Donna's passions included animals and gardening and she created beautiful spaces filled with a variety of flowers. In her short retirement in Arizona, she found new love for her desert plants and cactuses which brought her much joy. One of her greatest qualities was her immeasurable amount of ambition to do great things. Donna's legacy of love, laughter, and peace lives on through the people she loved. Her impact is one so big it will stick with you eternally.

She is survived by her husband Karl Griffin and beloved dog Ralphie, her sister Brenda (Al) Warren, brothers Fred Boles, Billy (Kym) Boles, stepsister Joyce (Mike) Loughmiller, stepbrother Chuck Ressler, Tim (Sue) Griffin, Ellen Henke (nee Griffin), Chris Weber (nee Griffin), Mike (Traci) Griffin, and Laura (Robin) Jaggi. She is also survived by her nephews; Anthony (Danielle) Terwall, Carl Henke, Bretton Jaggi, Ethan Weber, and Ty Weber, along with her nieces; Cassandra (Haizel) Torres, Megan Griffin, Linda (Colter) McCumber, and Kati Jaggi, and many great nieces and nephews and her loving animals Ralphie, Ringo, and Rylie.

Donna is preceded in death by her parents.
