Donna was born on June 4, 1958 in Stanley to the late Milton “Geep” and Lorraine (Potts) Gabert. She grew up in the area and graduated from Gilman High in 1976. She married John Komanec on July 9, 1977 at Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic Church in Gilman. The couple moved to Pocatello, Idaho for two years and then returned to the Gilman area. Donna worked for Tombstone Pizza in Medford and for Ace Ethanol in Stanley. She enjoyed traveling, camping, spending time with her grandchildren, family and all of her friends.

Donna is survived by her husband, John of Gilman; two daughters, Wendy (Cory) Ramaker of Shakopee, Minn. and Alicia (David) Soper of Gilman; four grandchildren, Raygen, Rowan, Carly and Jett; her siblings, Kathy (Jim) Rusk of West Bend, Carol (Larry) Gallet of Slinger, Curt (Vicki) Gabert of Gilman and Monica (Keith) Timm of Grafton; and her close circle of women friends who Donna also considered her family.

Donna was preceded in death by her parents and son Brent.

Plombon Funeral Service assisted the family with arrangements.

While flowers are always appreciated, the family is requesting donations be made to the Hope Lodge in Marshfield, where Donna was often a guest during treatment or to Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church.
