Donna Fay (Petri) Noe was born on August 28th, 1948 in Highland Park, Michigan.  She was the fourth child of Carl Joseph and Gladys Aretta's four children.  She was a loving wife, mother, and friend who never met someone she didn't like.  She personified lovingness, compassion, thoughtfulness, and loyalty.

In 1968, Donna met Leonard Keith Noe in Dearborn Heights, Michigan and were married in 1970.  They spent 52 loving years together. Donna and Leonard went on to have three sons together, which she prayed for years to have.

Those who knew Donna knew she had a passion for cleaning and decorating for every holiday.  She was so proud to be a mother of twins and was active in the Western Wayne Mothers of Twins Club until the time of her death.  The number of friends that Donna had is inconceivable.  Her rolodex was filled with numbers of friends and loved ones. The number of lives she touched is incredible to comprehend.

She leaves behind her loving family to cherish the many memories they had: Len (Jessica) of Austin TX, Trevor (Sarah) of Dallas TX, Tracy (Sara) of Inkster MI; four grandchildren; Araya, Bryon, Louis, and Ellie who all brought such joy to her life; and numerous relatives and special friends.

Donna was called home to eternal rest on Friday September 1, 2023. Her final moments were spent peacefully surrounded by family and friends.

We are confident that she is wearing her well earned crown and has joined Jesus in Heaven, which those that know her are confident she will have cleaner than ever.  We know she is now united with her late parents, Gladys and Carl Sr., as well as her siblings Carl Jr., Carol Kay, and Dennis.
