Donna grew up in Loves Park, IL. She moved to Marshfield,
WI, with husband Steve Krueger and raised her three sons. She later moved to
Rib Lake, WI, to own and operate a local bar.
Donna retired from Golden Living Center in Rib Lake as an
Activity Director and enjoyed fishing, crocheting, quilting, and watching the
wildlife out of her windows and on the game cameras. She truly enjoyed hosting
holidays and being with family, especially during deer hunting season. She also
loved to play games and occasionally ended up talking with family all night
long.
Donna was preceded in death by her parents Harold and Norma
Scott, husband Steve Krueger, son Ben Krueger, brother Glen Scott, and nephew
Frank Wadzinski.
Donna will have a private interment. A celebration of life
is going to be planned in the future when the sun is shining and her whole
family can be together to stay up all night while they share memories and
stories of all the great times they had with her.
Donna’s family would like to thank the amazing staff at UW
Hospital and the Rib Lake Ambulance for their wonderful care of her. Also, many
thanks to extended family and friends that supported us during this difficult
time.
Hemer Funeral Service of Medford and Rib Lake have been
entrusted with arrangements. Online condolences can be left at
