Donna Dielentheis

Donna Jean was the firstborn to Clayton J and Mabel G Moulton of Rush City, MN.

Embracing her role as the eldest, she was immediately and thereafter, always ready to be put in charge.

She met and married Ernie in 1951, welcomed a daughter and son, forged a career in healthcare as both school nurse and public health nurse - with a brief hiatus (12 years) as the resident cake decorator in the family business, The Brick Oven Bakery.

Preceded in death by husband, Ernie, parents Mabel & Clayton, sister Joanne Pederson

She is survived by her brother Roger (Karen) Moulton; children Kristin (Jeff Klemetsrud) and David (Lori Arcand) Dielentheis; grandchildren Kate, Daniel, Jon Dielentheis and Livia Klemetsrud and a huggable gaggle of goofy great-grand kids: Blake, Clayton, and Grahm Kellner, and Ada, Isla and Lyra Dielentheis - all of whom surrounded her bedside, held fast her hand and whispered of their forever love and memories - until the end.

Donna will be missed greatly by dear nieces, nephews, cousins and friends near and far.
