Donna Belle Goodrich, 86, went to be with the Lord on September 18, 2021, in Thornton, CO. She was born on December 19, 1934, in Woodlake, NE to Howard M. Goshorn and Blanch M. (Kinder) Goshorn.

Donna lived in Woodlake and Gordon, NE and graduated from Gordon High School in 1952. She married her husband Donald D. Goodrich in November of 1952 at the Methodist Church in Gordon, NE. During their 69 years of marriage, they lived in San Diego, CA, Rapid City, SD, and Clinton, IA, and eventually settled in Westminster, CO. Donna was a stay-at-home mom, worked in the cafeteria at Westminster High School, served as a store clerk for Hallmark and J.C. Penny, and worked as a computer operator at Storage Technology until she retired from there in 1994. Donna enjoyed spending time with family and friends, dancing, participating in bowling leagues, and traveling to Alaska, Bahamas, Hawaii, and attending shows in Branson, MO.

She is survived by her loving husband Donald, and two daughters, Pamela Kay Kutchen of Thornton, CO, and Vicky Lynn Lyon of Dacono, CO. She is also survived by five grandchildren, Nicole Krosky of CO, Eric (Rebecca) Krosky of CO, Michelle (Chris) Bielski of TX, Luke (Melissa) Lyon of MN, Greg (Ashely) Krosky of CO, and seven great grandchildren. Donna was preceded in death by her parents, brother Dwayne Goshorn and sisters Dolores Jensen, Yvonne Sandage, and Rozella Stinnette.
