Born on October 31, 1931 in Faribault, Donna was the daughter of William and Katherine (Sklenar) McCarthy. She attended Bethlehem Academy in Faribault and graduated in 1949. Donna married William (Bill) O. Harn on November 8, 1950 in Mason City, Iowa. Donna and Bill lived many years in Richfield before moving to French Lake. After raising her children, Donna worked over 20 years at the Minnesota School for the Blind as a House Parent. While Donna's first love was Bill, her second love was traveling. With Bill, family and good friends, she took in sights across the world, in recent years visiting Ireland, Italy, France, England, Nova Scotia and Mexico. She enjoyed spending time with family and hosted many gatherings at her home at French Lake, entertaining loved ones with photos from her most recent travels and her delicious baking. Donna was a devout Catholic and member of the parish at St. Patrick Church in Shieldsville.
Donna is survived by her husband Bill; their five children, Linda (Stephen) Gray of Burnsville, Judy (Dennis) Anderson of Minnetrista, William Jr. (Namsun) Harn of Rogers, Kathleen (Joseph) Sherman of Lakeville, and Kristine Harn of Faribault; her sister, Geraldine Lien of Faribault; brother, Edward (Joan) McCarthy of St. Paul; 11 grandchildren, Kirsten, Naomi, Ryan, Reece, Michelle, Trenton, Sam, Ben, Tori, Alonzo and Peter; and many nieces and nephews, including very special nephew, Steve (Terri) Redman of Clearfield, UT.
