SHEDLOWSKY (GATES), DONA, N., of Ortonville and longtime resident of Gingellville, passed away December 23, 2020, after a brave battle with COVID.

She was 88 yrs young; beloved wife of the late John Shedlowsky for over 62 years; cherished mother of Gary (Sandi), Karla (Joseph) Dean, Brenda, and the late Kathy Shedlowsky; proud grandmother of 5 and great grandmother of 7; preceded in death by her siblings, Joy (Rudy) Mazza, James (Millie) Gates, and Perry (Joyce) Gates. Dona enjoyed shopping,  baking, and bird watching.  Dona’s sense of humor and laugh was contagious and would brighten up any room.  Her friendly, outgoing, and kind-hearted spirit will be deeply missed by her family and friends. A celebration of her life will be held later this year.
