Donna Mae Fugere was born July 20, 1934 to Art and Olivia (Fugere) Fugere of Gaylord.
No matter how busy or what was going on in her life, Mom’s priority was her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. She never forgot a holiday, birthday, or special day in their lives, she was our foundation.
Mom had a passion for cooking and she was lucky enough to be able to share this with many throughout her employment years. This passion continued even after retirement and was her chosen place of serenity. Her favorite thing was to cook with or for her family. Her other interests included reading mysteries, word finds, playing guitar, playing cards, dancing, bingo, and going to the casino.
Donna Mae is survived by her six children, Nadine (Glen) Liuska, Wing, Karen (Tom) Dvorak, Berthoud, Colo., Gerald (Jill) Kordonowy, Dickinson, Pauline (Art) Kathe, Lyme, Conn., Dr. Raymond (Margaret) Kordonowy, Ft. Meyers, Fla., and Jonathan Kordonowy, Bismarck; 10 grandchildren, Melissa (Cory) Wirth, Red Lake Falls, Minn., Chelsey Liuska, Beulah, Tessa Dvorak, Edmonds, Wash., Sophie Dvorak, Torrington, Wyo., Marc Dvorak, Golden, Colo., Halsey Kordonowy, Bozeman, Mont., August Kordonowy, Dickinson, Andrea Kathe, Lyme, Conn., Nicholas Kordonowy, New York, N.Y., and Matthew Kordonowy, Ft. Meyers, Fla.; three great-grandchildren, Dothan and Draven Wirth, and Kail Bosch; one sister, Janice Kohler, Anoka, Minn.; sister-in-law, Janet Fugere, Gillette, Wyo.; and brother-in-law, Bob Ficek, Pierz, Minn.
