The Lord welcomed Donna Mae (Anderson) Perrine, 89 years “young” of Spring Park, MN home on December 3, 2018.
Donna, “Nona,” will be remembered for her hats, hugs & huge heart! She had a passion for traveling, flower gardening, the lake, antiquing and entertaining. She grew up in the Great Depression and was always a hard worker. Her motto was “I would rather wear out than rust out.” Nona's advice to her grandkids, who she adored, was to always remember your Heavenly Father, parents and Nona, pick good friends and eat your greens! Her pretty blue eyes and beautiful smile brought special men into her life. She was married to Bill Perrine for 40 years/divorced, special friend Del Bultman, soulmate Bob Olsen and Presbyterian Homes companion Clint Sams. She loved well and was well loved in return.
Donna is once again united with her parents Joe and Terrence, brother Ross Anderson, sister Cherri Bergland and son Gari Perrine.
Her legacy will continue on through her three children Greg (Michelle) Perrine, Peni (Vince) Lundeen, Pam (Greg) Wurm; nine grandchildren, Kari, Todd, Matt (Jody), Michayla and Kellirae Perrine, Tiffani Lundeen, Tysann (Dave) Forsman, Nick Wurm, Lauren (Craig) Johnson; seven great-grandchildren Kacie, Jessica and Rebecca Johnson, McKenzie Perrine, Emerson Forsman, Lindy and Lola Johnson; sisters Betty Peterson , Joan Haugen, Lavon (Bob) Rosecky, Naureen Nitardy and brother Dennis Anderson; and many nieces and nephews.
A Celebration of Life will take place on Tuesday, December 11, 10 a.m. at Presbyterian Homes Chapel, 4527 Shoreline Drive, Spring Park. The family would like to thank the loving and caring staff at Presbyterian Homes. Memorials preferred to Calvary Memorial Church, Navarre, MN. Donna would be the first to tell you she lived a long and happy life. Smile and give someone a hug as you think of her.
