Donna L. Marshall, age 87, of Manitowoc, passed away Sunday, October 16, 2016 at Holy Family Memorial Medical Center of Manitowoc County.

Donna was born on May 20, 1929 in Manitowoc, daughter of the late Mel and Grace (Jonas) Kitzerow. She attended Manitowoc Pubic Schools loving tennis and sports, graduating with honors from Manitowoc Lincoln High School in 1947. Donna was employed as a secretary to Rufin Boyd and Ed Anderson at Manitowoc Lincoln High School from 1947 to 1949. She attended UW Lacrosse, transferring to UW Oshkosh, serving as president of Radford Hall, was a member of Alathean Sorority, was elected to ‘Who’s Who’ in American Colleges and Universities and initiated into Kappa Delta Pi National Honor Society. Donna graduated from UW Oshkosh in 1953 with a degree in elementary education.

On December 27, 1952, Donna married Gerard Marshall, the love of her life, a man who loved teaching for 35 years at Woodrow Wilson Junior High School. He preceded her in death on March 5, 2013 after 60 years of marriage. Donna was a substitute teacher in Manitowoc Public Schools for seventeen years and then worked in the reading program for twenty-two years at Cleveland and Jefferson elementary schools. She was a member of First Lutheran Church, a Sunday School teacher, and sung in the choir for many years where her father was organist and choir director. Donna loved classical and easy listening music, tennis, friends and the outdoors. She loved wearing lipstick and passed that passion down to her two daughters.
