      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. After high school, she attended Sacred Heart School of Nursing in Spokane, graduating in 1953.
       She married George Ruddell on Sept. 18, 1954, at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church in Lewiston. They were married for 55 years.

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. She enjoyed life to the fullest, and we will miss her.
