Eldora (Doreen) Rose Donatini, born on July 24, 1934, passed away peacefully on October 16, 2026 from extended complications that arose from her stroke in the Fall of 2025. She was preceded in death by her parents, Jack and Mary Fernandez, and her loving husband Robert (Bob) J. Donatini.

She is survived by her brother Jack Fernandez and sister-in-law Rita Fernadez; her son Jeffrey Donatini and his wife Lisa Donatini; her daughter Lorrie E. Fuchs; her grandchildren Caitlin Kirby and her husband Sean Kirby, Nicholas Donatini and his husband Mathew Barrett, Kevin Donatini and his wife Rachel Donatini, Ashley Fuchs, Joshua Fuchs, Samuel Fuchs and his wife Caroline Compton, Joseph Fuchs; and her great-grandchildren Calvin Kirby and Hazel Kirby.

Eldora was a devoted Wife, Mother and Grandmother. She was a long-time member of the Spanish America Women’s Club, and an avid golfer and walker. She loved her sweets and her nightly glass of white wine at dinner. She will be sorely missed, but we know that she has been re-united with her parents and Bob, who we are certain welcomed her into heaven with open arms along with our heavenly Father.

There will be a private ceremony, with immediate family, at the cemetery that Eldora chose herself. Family and friends are welcome to a celebration of her life on November 7, 2026, at Lorrie Fuchs’ home, starting at 3:30 p.m.

A special thanks from the family to the staff at the Inn at Whitewood in North Canton, Ohio, for the great care that they provided to Doreen since her stroke.
