Donna Lawrence Obituary
January 5, 1940 – February 24, 2025
It is with profound sadness and heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Donna Lawrence (Turnbull)(Sholdice) on Monday, February 24, 2025 peacefully with family by her side. Donna was an inspiring woman who lived a life filled with love, strength, and devotion to her family and friends.
Donna is pre-deceased by her parents Norman and Marie Sholdice, daughter Heidi, husband Allan Turnbull, husband John Lawrence, brother Ian Sholdice, brother-in-law Neil Wiechman and niece Nola Praznik.
Survived by daughter Debbie (Marc) Carriere, grandchildren Nicole (Keith), Dana (Ryan), and Trevor; and great grandchildren Olivia, Gracie, and Peyton; brother Wally (Marnie) Sholdice and family, sister Norma (Neil) Wiechman and family, sister Mavis (Eric) Ott and family, along with many friends.
Donna was born January 5,1940 in Cypress River, MB. She was raised on the family farm with her siblings. She had many cherished memories and great stories to tell about life growing up together. Donna attended school in Cypress River. After marrying Allan, they moved to Treherne where Donna became a switchboard Operator for MTS.
In 1970, Donna and Allan adopted their beloved daughter, Debbie. Donna was a dedicated mother whose love and guidance shaped Debbie’s life in countless ways. Through all of life’s ups and downs, Donna and Debbie had an unbreakable bond.
In 1977, Donna married John and they all lived on the farm north of Treherne.
A strong woman with a kind soul, Donna was a proud wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. A farm girl at heart, she enjoyed all aspects of life on the farm. From helping Johnnie with chores, to gardening, feeding many wildlife including deer, wild turkeys and countless different types of birds. She had love for her community and all the people in it.
Donna loved her role as a grandmother and was blessed to know her 3 great-grandchildren who she adored. Some of her grandchildren’s favourite memories were spending summers in Treherne, watching movies, playing the piano, singing and dancing in the kitchen to Shania Twain, spontaneous country drives, baking, swimming, and holidays. Just sitting down with her to hear all of her amazing experiences, memories and stories usually ending with her laugh that could brighten the darkest of days – a sound that will be forever missed by loved ones. Donna was also known for her incredible baking skills, and her cherished recipes will continue to be passed down through generations. Her kitchen was always filled with delicious aromas, warmth, love and the laughter of those lucky enough to share in her creations. So many fun times and great memories were made at Debbie’s with Grand and Great Grandchildren. Those times will forever be lovingly remembered.
Donna’s legacy of love, resilience, and strength will live on in the hearts of her family and friends. She will be deeply missed and always remembered.
A Graveside Service will be held at Woodlands Cemetery on Friday, March 28, 2025 at 11:00 am with Heather Grobb officiating. Following the interment, a reception will be held in lower level of the Treherne United Church. Everyone is welcome.
Memorial donations can be made in Donna’s memory to the Canadian Cancer Society, 1 Wesley Ave., Winnipeg, MB, R3C 4C6.
The family would like to thank Dr. Prud’Homme, Dr. MacTavish and all staff of Treherne Personal Care Home. Special thanks to Vanessa, Dawn, Ashley and Teesha.
Rest peacefully, I love you Forever Mom.
Until we meet again.
