DONNA JESSON It is with great sadness we announce the unexpected passing of our beloved wife and mother Donna Jesson on Thursday, January 22, 2015 at the age of 64. Left to mourn her passing are her husband of 40 years Robert, her son Brent, mother Lena Senko, brother Lorne (Elaine) Senko, sister Margie Stolarchuk, as well as numerous brother and sisters-in-law, aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews and dear friends. Her father Matthew predeceased her. Donna was born May 15, 1950 in Russell, Manitoba and grew up in nearby Angusville. She attended Brandon University, which is where she met her husband Robert. The first special moment of her life was their marriage on July 20, 1974. Her second special moment was the birth of their son Brent. She was very proud to share Brent's accomplishments with her family and friends. She enjoyed spending the last 26 years living in St. Andrews. Donna worked for the Royal Bank for 36 years in customer service. She met many coworkers and customers who remained friends after her retirement in 2008. Donna loved photography, travelling, family gatherings, spoiling her nieces and nephews or simply enjoying a nice long chat with a loved one or close friend. Donna was a very caring, loving and loyal person. She will forever be missed by all the family and friends who were lucky enough to know and love her. In lieu of flowers, a donation may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation in her memory. A celebration of Donna's life will be taking place Monday, January 26, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. at Glen Eden Funeral Home and Cemetery, 4477 Main St. West St. Paul, MB.

Auntie Donna was such a special lady and I'm so glad to have made some memories with her. Visiting her and Uncle Bob when I was 18, we went out for supper, just she and I, and she bought me my first Manitoba alcoholic drink. Giggling with her while watching Brent throw glass bottles off of my mom and dad's deck because he liked the sound of them smashing. (He was only two.) And my China - forever grateful. I will always love you and will miss you forever, Auntie. I wish I could be there, Uncle Bob and Brent, but I am thinking of you. Love you both so much. - Posted by: Elaine Jesson (Niece ) on: Jan 24, 2015
