Donna Gale Broadway

August 24, 1943 - July 9, 2019

Racine-Donna Gale Broadway, 75, went into the arms of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on July 9, 2019. Donna was born to the late Harry and Gladys (nee: Hollifield) Cole in Spartanburg, SC, on August 24, 1943. Donna spent many years as a home health care provider but her favorite job was being a grandma and caregiver to her grandchildren. She was proud of her education, having graduated from Gateway Technical College in 1986 with an Associates of Human Services Degree. Donna also received her Bachelors of Arts Degree in Sociology from UW-Parkside in 1994 alongside her daughter, Katie. Donna had many hobbies, some of which included: crocheting, cooking, baking, watching old movie musicals, and doing her daily crossword puzzles. She also loved to watch the Chicago Bears. Donna loved loving Jesus and her family. She will be deeply missed. Left to cherish Donna’s memory is her daughter, Katie (Greg) Mattes of Racine; her sons: Chris Haas of Racine and Joe Haas of Fort Atkinson; her sister: Rhonda (Tom) Now of Racine; her grandchildren: Elizabeth, Nicholas, and William Mattes all of Racine; her loving companion, Philip Grieser of Racine; two loving nieces and their families; as well as many other relatives and friends. A private celebration of Donna’s life will be held at a later date. The family asks memorials be made out to Shiners Hospital (2211 N Oak Park Ave, Chicago, IL 60707). The family would like to extend a special thank you to the staff and doctors of Ascension All Saints of Racine for their excellent care of Donna.
