Donna M. McLaughlin

Donna Marie (Kuntz) McLaughlin, 89, on January 26th, 2026, left this world and entered into eternal life. She was living at Jefferson Memory Care in Jefferson, Wisconsin at the time of her passing.

Born January 10th, 1937, in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, the daughter of Lawrence and Loyal Messer.

She is survived by her son, Mark (Carolyn) Kuntz, her daughter, Ann (Kurt) Hansen, grandchildren and great-granddaughter. She was preceded in death by her father Larry, mother Loyal, her husband Dennis Kuntz (1976) her brother, sister Shirley and second husband Kent McLaughlin (2010).

She moved frequently with Dennis, Mark and Ann, but later settled in Marathon, Florida with her second husband, Kent. She was a devout Christian who volunteered in her church and community however she was able to.

There will be a memorial in the spring when it is warmer, as winter was not her favorite season. That is why they moved to Marathon, Florida in 1992.

The memorial will take place in Beaver Dam at Oakwood Cemetery, with a park reception after.

In her memory and honor, Ann is accepting donations to forward to her Mom’s favorite charity at her church in Marathon.
