Donna was the fourth child born to Ernest (Donald) Wheeler and Pearlye Bell Haley Wheeler. She was born in hard times. She always had medical problems. they think she had spinabiphada. when she was 6mo old she got phnamonia, she was taken to the county hospital in French Camp, CA. where she was put in a crib with sheets over it like a tent with a hot plate and water boiling to cause a mist. the tent sheet cought on fire and she burned to death in the hospital. the hospital buried her in their hospital on ground cemetery at no cost to her family.

I want to give a BIG thank you to Jody for finding my aunt's grave.
It seems the hospital moved all the bodies in their cemetery but not everyone was informed of the move. Donna is now buried at Cherekee Memorial Park in Lodi, CA.
