Obituary of Donna Belle Murphy
Please share a memory of Donna to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Donna B. Murphy, 69, of Gobles, Michigan passed away on Monday, September 6, 2010 at her residence, surrounded by her family, after a courageous battle with cancer.
She was born on May 5, 1941 in Hastings, Michigan to Richard and Dorothy (Phillips) Easey.
Donna was a graduate of Hastings High School. She was employed for over seventeen years at Coca-Cola and worked for several years at Dickerson Greenhouse. Her last nine years of working was at EPC in Mattawan. Donna married George E. Murphy, Jr. at a ceremony in Allegan, Michigan. The two have traveled the country together and were fortunate enough to be in forty nine of the fifty states. Donna also enjoyed going to casinos, collecting frogs and watching birds, especially hummingbirds. Donna's greatest passion was her family. Spending time with her children, grandchildren and her husband meant more than anything to her.
She is preceded in death by her father and one brother.

Murphy, Jr. of Gobles, her mother Dorothy Easey of Hastings, two daughters Becky (Craig) Bell of Hastings, Terri (Jeff) Sweet of Paw Paw, two sons Larry (Olara) Varney of Mattawan and Lance (Twila) Devenport of Gobles, twelve grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren, a brother and two sisters.
