Donna was born in Rochester on March 28, 1955, the daughter of Doris and William Miller. She lived her entire life in the Rochester and Sodus Point area, while enjoying

winters in south Florida. Donna had a long and successful banking career and upon

retirement, undertook many charitable causes in the community. Most notably, she

founded the Breast Cancer Charity Golf Tournament, which has grown to be the largest and most successful charity golf tournament of its kind at Sodus Bay Heights Golf Club. Donna’s skill with a deck of cards was legendary and she was famous for hosting lively and creative games of all kinds. She possessed an incomparable sense of style, she loved people and was recognized as the unofficial social director of the neighborhood. Above all else, she was a kind and loyal friend, devoted to her family and loved by all who knew her.

She is survived by her husband, Bill; sons John (Kate) Kenney, Tim (Jennifer) Krehling and daughter Amy (Edward) Powers; as well as her grandchildren whom she loved dearly: Lea and Parker Kenney, Dylan Krehling, Shane (Alaina) and Jordan Powers; brothers Gary (Kathy) Miller, Bill (Kelly) Miller and Randy (Judy) Miller; brother-in-law John (Collette) Krehling, many nieces, nephews and cousins and countless friends that adored her.
