Donna was born on August 9, 1944, in Mattoon, IL, the daughter of Harry Edwin and Juanita Louise (Hampton) Turner. On December 25, 1975, she married Ronnie Dale Webb in Charleston, IL. Together, they built a life full of love and faith, sharing more than fifty wonderful years together.

She is survived by her loving husband, Ronnie Dale Webb of Mattoon, IL; four children: Tanya Webb and her significant other Joseph Arthur of Mattoon, Donna Deters and her husband Shane of Charleston, Michael Oldfield of Mattoon, and Sean Oldfield and his wife Robin of Mesa, Arizona.

She was also a proud and loving great-grandmother to Jasper, Alexandria, and Leighton Brackemyre of Lovington; Maci and Kyson of Carmi; Westyn, Elliana, and Alana Roberts of Charleston; and David Arthur III of Charleston, her sister, Omega Lawson of Mattoon, and brother, Gene Turner of California. Donna was a beloved aunt to many nieces and nephews, each of whom held a special place in her heart

She was preceded in death by her parents and seven siblings: John Turner, Linda Hart, Lurlene Jaco, Cecil Turner, Arthur Turner, Juanita Pepperdine, and Tracy Turner. She is now reunited in peace with those she loved and missed dearly.

Donna lived a life deeply rooted in faith, guiding her path with a heart full of devotion and a steadfast commitment to her family. Her life was a testament to the power of love—evident in her roles as a cherished wife, nurturing mother, doting grandmother, and proud great-grandmother.

She found joy in life’s simple pleasures, especially gathering with friends and family to play bingo and dice games, where laughter and friendly competition filled the room. Donna's kitchen was the heart of her home—she loved cooking big meals for her family, especially on Sundays and holidays. She poured her love into every dish, and no one ever left her home hungry—or without a hug. A lifelong Pittsburgh Steelers fan, Donna cheered on her team with unwavering loyalty—win or lose. Football Sundays were sacred, and her Terrible Towel was always close by. Donna had a soft spot for animals, and her beloved dog was never far from her side. Their bond was a constant source of comfort, joy, and companionship throughout her life

Donna was a member of the Free Methodist Church in Neoga, IL, where she found strength and fellowship through her faith.
