Donna Mae Starling, 80, of Pensacola, FL was called home March 8, 2023.
She was born on August 24, 1942, to Harley Hosler and Mamie (Taylor) Hosler in Petoskey, MI.
She was raised in the Newberry/Dollarville area of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan alongside her siblings. She lived an interesting life and met many classic country and western singers of the 50s and 60s who played shows around the Detroit area.
She was an avid bingo player and made new family members and friends through that community, many of whom she loved dearly. Nothing made her happier than a Sunday drive with nowhere to go, or a spontaneous visit from her great-grandchildren.
Donna is survived by her son, Robert (Tami) and daughters, Laurie and Diane. Her grandchildren, Charlie (Lucianna), Kenny, Cherie, Jessica, Jason, Elena (Kenny), Austin, Josh, Jessica, Jenna and Juliet. Her brother-in-law, John Morell and Bobbie, Antonio and Ryan. Her great-grandchildren, Johnny V, Claira Mae, Alexis, Demarcus, Derek, Arianna, Adrian, Mikayla, Bella, Rickey, Angelina, Keira, Isabella, Isaiah, Stella, Chloe, Catalaya, Brylee and Ajax.
She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, Richard Starling, her daughter, Debbie, and all of her siblings: Raymond, Betty, Joyce, Bill and Josephine.
Visitation will be held on Saturday, March 18th from 10am-12pm at Trahan Family Funeral Home. The family will speak at 11am.
