Donna Marie Dobbs

It is with great sorrow and much love that we mourn the passing of Donna Marie Dobbs on March 29, 2026, at the age of 64.

She was born on August 5, 1961, in Barstow, California, to Dallas and Judith Dake. She spent her career as a dedicated and valued financial accountant. She loved to travel, crochet, and garden.

Her daughters were her world, and her love for them was constant, fierce, and unconditional. She took great pride and joy in her grandsons, cherishing every moment spent with them and holding close the special bond they shared. Her love made her family feel safe, supported, and truly known.

She shared a special relationship with her sister, built on a lifetime of love, laughter, and unwavering support. Their bond reflected her loyalty and the importance she placed on family connections.

Her thoughtfulness showed in the smallest, most meaningful ways—a kind word just when it was needed, a gentle presence, or simply being there to listen. She lived a life of faith, love, and devotion to God and her family. Her quiet strength and selflessness were felt by everyone who knew her, and her love will continue to live on in our hearts.

She is survived by her daughters, Danielle (Travis), Jessica (Marc), and Katherine (Andrew); her five grandsons, Wesley, Joseph, Jase, Maxime, and Hudson; her sister, Diane (Gary); her niece, Candice; her nephew, Jonathan; and their families. She was preceded in death by her parents and her brother Dewayne Dake.

She will be greatly missed, forever loved, and always remembered.
