Donna J. Jones

Donna Jean Jones, 81, of Casper, Wyoming passed away on Sept 2nd in her home with her two daughters beside her. Donna was born in Casper, Wyoming to Geraldine Miller and Edgar Howard on June 4, 1943. She graduated from NC high school. Donna worked most of her life as a bookkeeper running companies with her late husband Joe Pittman.

Donna is survived by her two daughters Lisa & “Joel” Klessens (Denton, Tx), and Kristi & “Casey” Hann (Casper, Wy), her sister Stacey & “Brandy” Bryon (Lander, Wy), grandchildren Beck “Lori” & Cobi “Tawnie” Eskew (Casper, Wy), Hunter Kuhn (Denver, Co), Spenser and Chandler Klessens (Denton, Tx), and great grandchildren Remington, Indy Jo, and True Eskew (Casper, Wy). She is preceded in death by her late husband, Joe Pittman, mother Gerry Miller, the man she called dad, CT Miller, and her beautiful granddaughter Morgan Klessens.

Donna loved life and so many things about it, but mostly her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren, all of whom brought her so much strength and determination at the end of her journey. She loved to read a good book, drink a good cup of coffee, and watch a good Christmas movie, no matter the time of year. She loved sewing and crafts of any kind and taking long walks. She loved cooking and bringing family together, she was the glue that held her family together. Donna’s words were always kind and her heart was always open. Donna would want to educate the world about stroke prevention and the profound impact a stroke can have on one’s life. Donna fought a good fight after her stroke with dignity, courage, and hope.
