Donna Gertz Polusny
August 5, 1950 — August 3, 2021
Donna Gertz Polusny, 70, of Daniel Island, SC, formerly of Pittsburgh, PA, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, August 3, 2021 after a courageous battle against cancer.
Adored wife of Gene Polusny; beloved sister of Linda Gertz Rawlins (Ray); beautiful aunt to Danielle & Jeffrey Rawlins, Jackie, Greg (Angela), Derek & Gary Peters; as well as great aunt to Uli Rawlins and Owen, Mila & Asher Peters. Also survived by her sister and brother-in-laws, Eileen & Pat Witte and Kathy & Gary Peters.
Donna enjoyed life to the max, embracing southern living in her perfect retirement spot. She and Gene loved biking, walking, yoga, frequent trips to the ocean and all the fine dining of the Charleston area, but she most loved showing off the 'lowcountry' to their visitors. Donna was born in Pittsburgh, PA on August 5, 1950 and grew up in Upper St. Clair, PA. She earned degrees from Penn State and UNC. Her career spanned both the Special Education field and IT Support for Consulting Firms such as Arthur Andersen, Deloitte & Touche, as well as Mellon, all in Pittsburgh. She was also a passionate lover of her pets, both dogs and cats. She was full of energy, enthusiasm, and a joy to be around. She will be greatly missed, but will be remembered with much love and a big smile.
