Donna Marie Sparrowhawk. April 10, 1962- January 8, 2014. Age 51 years. Donna Marie was born on April 10, 1962 in Regina, SK., to George & Evelyn Kerr. She became the kid sister to four older brothers. Donna grew up in the Midale and Weyburn area, moving to Yorkton in her teenage years. She had moved to Esterhazy where she was employed by IMC (Mosaic), where she remained working for almost 18 years until her passing. Donna was blessed with 3 children, Taralynn (1982), Clint (1990), and Lauren (1993). Donna met the love of her life, Byron, in March, 2005. Then on March 17, 2008 they were married. They enjoyed their life together camping and travelling, Mexico being their favourite destination. Nights in the backyard around the fire listening to music and enjoying a glass of wine with friends and family, was another favourite pastime. Through the years as a mother, Donna enjoyed being a ball coach and hockey mom. But being a grandma is what brought her the greatest joy. Anyone that had the privilege in knowing Donna, saw an extremely giving person that was always trying to help others. It made her day if she could make someone smile or laugh. She had a sense of humor that was unlike any other, a vibrant spirit & a laugh that was contagious. Donna was 51 when she passed away on January 8, 2014, after a short battle with cancer.
