Donna Taylor Callister "Grandma Donna"
Heaven became one angel brighter on June 10, 1996, when Donna returned to her eternal home and earth will be forever blessed by the "76" years we've loved her as sister, mother, grandma, aunt, daughter, neighbor, and friend.
Born June 14, 1920 in Salt Lake City to Robert W. and Hannah M. "Lynn" Wright Taylor. Married Albert F. Tennant on June 24, 1939, deceased Sept. 1939. Married Donald D. Callister on June 10, 1941, marriage solemnized in the Salt Lake LDS Temple. He died January 1983.

Camp, she was the receipiant of the prestigious "Woman of Faith and Fortitude" award following her faithful 19 years of service.

Her unconditional love for family and friends will serve as an inspiration to us all, and her beautiful music will echo in our minds forever.
