Donna Lou Petters

December 10, 1933 — October 27, 2020

Donna Lou Petters, wife of Carl Eugene Petters, entered into the presence of her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on October 27, 2020.

She was born in York, Pennsylvania on December 10, 1933 to Stewart S. and Florence M. Detwiler. After completing Manheim Central High School, she graduated from Millersville State Teachers College in 1957 where she majored in Library Science. Donna Lou served faithfully as a devoted pastor's wife, mother of four children, school teacher, and librarian. She sacrificially and joyfully volunteered many hours in serving various Christian Ministries and her 16 grandchildren. Her passion for her Lord, art, love of good literature and untiring scrabble games brings a smile to the faces of those she has left behind.

Surviving is her husband of 62 years, Carl Petters and four children, Mary Lou Petters, Jenny Bostic (wife of Curtis Bostic ), Debby Bollmann (wife of Kyle Bollmann), and John Petters (husband to Jessica Petters) all of Charleston, SC.
