Donna Marie Ruddell, 77, died peacefully in her sleep Wednesday, March 24, 2010, while visiting Henderson, Nev.  She was born Jan. 14, 1933, in Lewiston, the daughter of Jacob and Ruth Skinner. Donna graduated from Lewiston High School in 1950. She was active in majorettes and a member of the National Honor Society.

They were married for 55 years.  Donna worked at St. Joseph’s Hospital until she needed to be a full-time mom for her four boys. She worked as office manager at Ruddell Chiropractic Clinic for 23 years before retiring. She was very active in the Beta Sigma Phi sorority. She loved to golf and enjoyed traveling, fishing for kokanee on Coeur d’Alene Lake and being with her children. Donna was a wonderful wife, mother, sister, grandmother and mother-in-law.
