With immense sadness, we announce the passing of Amanda Ann Donnell. At the very young age of 39, Amanda passed on Friday, March 22, 2019. Surrounded by her family, she left us while sleeping peacefully, taking the hand of her daddy, he led her through the gates of Heaven.
Amanda was born June 24, 1979 to Clayton and Paula (Boyd) Donnell in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. She was raised in the Dewey area most of her life. She attended Dewey Public Schools and graduated in 1998. Amanda later put herself through Nursing School, becoming an LPN. She loved being a nurse, especially loved taking care of the elderly patients. Due to her long battle with Breast Cancer, her career as a nurse was cut short. Most of all she loved and adored her children, they were her world, Amanda began her “mommy” career in2001, when she brought Brooklyn into this world and in 2008, Cutter came along to complete her circle of life. Amanda loved her babies and no matter how sick or how bad her day was, made sure she still stayed involved in their everyday lives, whether it be sporting events, school activities or just watching Cutter ride his horse. She wanted nothing more for them to have a wonderful life. Although Amanda loved nursing, she also loved being home, spending precious time with her kids.
Amanda, being the “Crazy Chicken Lady” she was, could spend hours outside watching and talking to her chickens.
Amanda made friends everywhere she went with her big heart and wonderful personality. Amanda’s presence in our lives here on earth will be missed by all that knew her. When you think of Amanda, celebrate the good memories you have of her. Remember that life is fragile and short, and should be lived to the fullest.
