Donna was born July 13, 1930, in Middletown, Missouri, to Jewell and Eula (Lionberger) See. She was the third of ten children. Donna grew up in a loving home and had many fond memories of her childhood.

On September 4, 1948, Donna married Edward Riddle. They had two sons together, Dale and Doug. Donna and Edward were married for 51 years until his passing in 2000.

Donna was a devoted wife and loving mother, always there for her family and friends. Her passing leaves a deep void in the hearts of those who knew her. She enjoyed embroidery, going to races, and bowling, and was a dedicated fan of the St. Louis Cardinals. She had a fondness for Amish candy and was known for baking delicious pies. Donna was also a hard worker. She owned and operated a beauty shop out of her home and ran a trucking company with her late husband, Edward. She would dispatch for the company out of her shop, and the truck drivers were like family to her. Donna cherished her children, grandchildren, nieces, and nephews, and never said no to a game of Yahtzee with her family. She will be remembered for her loving and caring nature, her vibrant and cheerful personality, and her devotion to her family and friends.

Donna was Preceded in death by her husband; Edward Riddle, her son; Doug (Lori) Riddle, her parents; Jewell and Eula See, two brothers; Shelby See, and Johnnie (Jeanie) See, and three Sisters; Ruth (Victor) Johnson, Bonnie Sterling, and Linda Goggin.

She is survived by her son; Dale (Linda) Riddle, four sisters; Elvadine Hollensteiner, Venus (Manuel) Hupe, Patty (Roy) Boone, and Judy Henke, five grandchildren; Michelle, Kyle, Kali, Taylor, and Jared, and five great-grandchildren, along with many extended friends and family.
