OBITUARY
Donna L Price
1953-2022
Donna Price, 69, Of Daingerfield, Texas passed away peacefully in her
home on August 23, 2022. She was surrounded by family and love.
Donna was born on January 18, 1953 in Dallas, Texas to parents Ruth and
Troy Wilcox.
After graduating from R.L. Turner High School in 1971, she worked
tirelessly through her life as an administrator, entrepreneur, and
teacher for many notable companies including The Dallas Times-Herald,
The El Chico Corporation, and Lennox Industries.
She considered her real life’s work to be the care and raising of her
children, and the volunteer work she did as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses.
On March 6th, 1965, she was Baptized as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses, and
ever since has taken to heart the words of First Corinthians 15:58 by
“always having plenty to do in the work of the Lord”. Donna’s “plenty to
do” involved many aspects of sacred service, including serving as a
full-time minister and bible educator; meeting and engaging with those
seeking answers in street and metropolitan witnessing work; working in
the carpentry, concrete, AV, flooring, foodservice, and countless other
building trades as an RBC/LDC volunteer construction worker; working to
rebuild homes of those affected by natural disasters such as Hurricane
Katrina; and being a tireless student of bible truths.
Donna’s greatest joy in life was her family. She had four children born
to her, and added an additional three on her marriage on January 8th,
1993 to Michael Price. Donna and Mike were married for nearly 30 years,
and enjoyed travel, partnership in theocratic activities, and treasured
their home together in Daingerfield.
Donna is survived by her husband, Mike; her brother Troy; her children,
Jennifer, Troy, John, Patrick, Shane, Slade and Sloane; her
grandchildren, Zach, Antonia, Olivia, Emma, Judy, Tom, Amber, Landon,
Maddox, Serenity and Ariana; and her dogs, Blue and Koda.
One of the bible truths that Donna most treasured was the promise that
God has a deep desire to bring those who have died back to life. Job
14:15 poetically says “You will call, and I will answer you. You will
long for the work of your hands.” She yearned to see the day when her
beloved God would bring back her parents, sisters, unborn child, and
friends from the grave. We share her yearning, and her sure hope that
we’ll see her again.
A memorial will be held on Saturday, September 17th at 1:30pm at the
following location:
Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses
3698 Rosemeade Pkwy
Dallas, TX 75287 |
