Donna Grace Larson, of Calumet, passed away on March 1, 2026 at PortagePointe, just hours before her 89th birthday and with family by her side. She was born on March 2, 1937 in Sault Sainte Marie, Michigan, to Arthur and Grace (McKenzie) Andrews.
Donna’s family lived in the area of Sault Sainte Marie known as Algonquin and later moved to Maple Street and then to Superior Avenue. She attended the Sault Area Schools and later lived on Long Island and in England before returning to Sault Sainte Marie. Donna and her family moved to the Copper Country in 1971 when her husband Larry was transferred.
Donna was a tough cookie, who for many years, drank coffee all day long and did not hesitate to let you know what she thought. She dealt with her recent challenges the best she could and will be remembered as a loving wife, mother, and friend. She enjoyed bowling and played many games of bingo throughout the Copper Country.
Donna was preceded in death by her parents, siblings, and son-in-law Bob. She is survived by her loving husband, Larry of Calumet; children, Terri (Butch) Lawrence of Calumet, Patty (Gary) Hein of Two Rivers, Wisconsin, and Don Larson of Calumet; grandchildren, Linda, Scott, Lindsey, and Dawn; great-grandchildren, Kara, Meric, Aaliyah, and Alexis; and great-great grandchildren, McKenna, Carter, and Tristan.
Donna’s family extends a special thank you to the staff at PortagePointe for the care they provided. Per Donna’s wishes, cremation will take place. A private celebration of life will be held a later date.
