LaDonna King, loving wife, devoted mother, grandmother, sister and daughter, died unexpectedly on Nov. 19, 2012, at her home outside of Harrisburg.
LaDonna was born in Gothenburg, Neb., to Signe and Clarence Block on Feb. 10, 1949 as the third of four children. LaDonna was known and will always be remembered for her vivacious spirit, her open heart and her ability to love without boundary.
She is survived and loved by her family: devoted husband Terry King; mother Signe Block; parents-in-law Agnes and Harold Liggett; siblings: Janet and Ed Youngberg, Rhonda Alstad, Mark and Kim Block; and brother and sister-in-law Larry and Judy King. She is survived and loved by her children: Mistia and Harmon Zuckerman, Jeneia Mullins and Matthew Phillips, Libby and Jaime King, Jim King, David and Tifany King; and her grandchildren, Henry Zuckerman and Arlo King. She is loved and will be missed by many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews and extended family. LaDonna is predeceased by her father, Clarence Block, brother-in-law, John Alstad, and granddaughter Fritzie Zuckerman.
LaDonna graduated from Augustana College in Sioux Falls, S.D., and traveled around the world in a global education with St. Olaf College. This travel provided a strong base for her lifelong interest in social concerns and her desire to help others.
LaDonna touched many lives as a teacher, counselor and friend. In every aspect of her life she displayed an extraordinary ability to reach out to other people with an open mind, acceptance and steadfast support. She found happiness and fulfillment in her love for so many. She was known for her contagious laugh, passion for life and choosing to "dance in the midst of the madness."
LaDonna's eminent spirit and unwavering grace will help provide comfort to all who knew her. She will be deeply missed and she will forever be celebrated.
LaDonna was preceded in death by father, Clarence Block.
Services will be held at American Lutheran Church, December 7, 2012 at 11:00 am with Pastor Tom Wilson officiating.
