Donna Marie DeBoer, age 79, of Wyoming, MI went home to be with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ on Monday, April 5, 2021. Donna was born in Ste St Marie, MI on August 19, 1941. As the Food Manager, aka “Lunch Lady” for 27 years for Godfrey Lee Public School, Donna was known for her great soup and delicious peanut butter bars. She enjoyed reading her Bible, spending time with her family, playing Bingo, and the occasional word find or crossword puzzle. However, when asked what her greatest achievement in life was, she responded, “my children”. She was preceded in death by her husband, Edward DeBoer; son, Fredrick Boutwell; and daughter, Jeannette Boutwell. She will be lovingly remembered by her sons, Gene (Raylene) Boutwell of Howard City, MI, Donald (Lelea) Boutwell of Grand Rapids, MI; 11 grandchildren, 22 great-grandchildren, who will affectionately remember her as “Grandma Buzzy”; and many nieces and nephews. Aside from the children she doted on, Donna is survived by her sisters, Audrey (Jim) Johnson of Ste St Marie, MI and Gayle Jones of Wyoming, MI. The family would like to express their gratitude to Medilodge of Wyoming for the compassionate and loving care they gave Donna for the six years she lived there. A memorial gathering will be held on Saturday, May 29, 2021, from 11am-4pm, at Palmer Park, Shelter A, 1275 52nd St SW, Wyoming, MI. Burial at Resurrection Cemetery.
