Donna L

Finders

Donna L. Finders (nee: Williams) of Warrenton, MO., entered into rest Monday, March 8 2021, at University Hospital in Columbia, MO. Donna was born July 5, 1961 in St. Louis, MO., to the late Betty Nettler (nee: Williams). She was 59 years old at the time of her death.

Donna was united in marriage to Sam Finders in February 1991. She spent most of her life working accounts payable and receivable at various local business, with a good portion spent at Arens Oil in Montgomery City, MO. Donna enjoyed being outside in the sunshine and often kept several bird feeders and plants throughout her yard, but her biggest love was her grandkids and the kids she worked with at church. Most Sunday's you could find Donna working with the "Creek Kids" teaching Sunday school classes. Her grandkids were her life. She enjoyed spending her time with them, taking them to the pool, zoo, Grants Farm, and parks. When her grandkids got older, you could find her on the bleachers, watching their sporting games and paying for all the snacks. She was, of course, their number #1 fan. Donna was also an avid St. Louis Cardinals Baseball fan. She went to many games and even attended Spring Training in Jupiter FL. Donna's final wish, was to give the gift of life, through the Organ Donation Registry.

Donna was preceded in death by her longtime partner, Rocky Ranschburg; husband, Sam Finders; parents, Lawrence and Betty Nettler; grandparents, Lawrence and Eula (nee: Smith) Williams. Donna is survived by two stepsons, Bob Finders and wife Molly of Arkansas, Jon Finders and girlfriend Kerry Kelling, of Troy; one daughter, Sarah Likes and husband Andy of Warrenton; one brother, Johnnie Williams of Advance; 5 grandchildren, Trevor, Hannah and Eli Finders, Brandon and Emily Likes; one great grandchild, Thomas Eveland; niece, Cassandra Jolliff (nee: Williams) and husband Donnie; nephew Storm Williams and fiancé, Maresa; several cousins, aunts, uncles, great nieces, nephews, other relatives and lifelong friends.
