Donna Kay Fredrickson Barton went to be with the Lord on October 13, 2014, at home surrounded by family. Born on October 1, 1943, in Lindsborg, Kansas, to Kenneth and Lois Fredrickson, Donna was a proud member of the Girl Scouts.

It was while working as a purchaser for Dupont that she met Dave Barton, whom she fell in love with and married in 1970. Donna was a member of First United Methodist Church for many years. She served as their receptionist for nine years, and touched many people during that time. Donna believed her greatest accomplishment was being a mom, and was known for her hospitality and service to others.
