Donna Blevins was born on Kansas Day, January 29, 1927, to Fay M. and Nellie Catherine (Marshall) Hatcher, in Nickerson, KS.

She was a 1945 graduate of Hutchinson High School. She worked at the Fox Theater as an usherette and at Montgomery Wards.

Donna met Bob Seefeldt at the Naval Air Base and later married on January 6, 1946. On December 23, 1946, Robert Allen was born. On April 19, 1950, Cathy Ann was born, and on May 27, 1956, Julie Kay was born. After raising her children, she went to work for Dr. Robert Shears, then worked at KTVH.

Mother and dad loved to dance and often went to the American Legion for steak night with friends. Donna never missed a Lawrence Welk show and loved all the reruns later in life.

On December 7, 1974, she married Kenneth Blevins in Manhattan, KS. They then moved to Olathe, where she worked at Equitable Life Insurance and for 10 years never missed a day of work. Mother and Ken were owners of Olathe Floral where she was the bookkeeper, inventory manager, and with some family help, floral delivery service. Many Mother's Day, Valentine's Day and other holidays I drove and she delivered dozens of arrangements. She was quite the gardener and loved her flowers.

Survivors include: daughter, Cathy and husband Larry; son in law, Terry Johnson; eight grandchildren; 15 great-grandchildren; and two great-great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by: her parents; husband; daughter, Julie Kay Smith Johnson; and son, Robert Allen Seefeldt and his wife, Christine Mae Seefeldt; brothers, Gwyn Hatcher and wife Marylou, and Merlyn Hatcher and wife Carole.

Mother did not want a service, but instead said "I'd rather everyone remember all the good times we had and don't mourn me when I'm gone." Cremation has taken place.

In lieu of flowers, memorials are suggested to Donna Blevins Memorial Fund, in care of Elliott Mortuary, 1219 N. Main, Hutchinson, KS 67501.
