Donna Jean Olson's Obituary
With hearts full of gratitude, we celebrate the remarkable life of Donna J Olson (Sontag), who brought warmth, laughter, and kindness to everyone around her. Born in Oshkosh, WI, the daughter of Madeline and Eugene Sontag on October 2, 1944, and passing peacefully in Appleton, WI, on December 20, 2025, Donna’s journey was one of joy, generosity, and love.
Donna’s legacy shines through her devotion to family and friends. She was the heart of every gathering, sharing stories, creating cherished memories, and inspiring those around her with her compassion and zest for life. Her positivity and caring nature made every moment brighter, and her spirit continues to uplift all who knew her. Her children and grandchildren will miss her greatly.
There will be no visitation, we invite friends and family to join us at a joyful celebration of Donna’s life at the Fiss & Bills-Poklasny Funeral Home, 865 S. Westhaven Drive in Oshkosh on Monday, December 29, 2025, at 11:00 AM. Burial will follow in Riverside Cemetery.
