Donna Marie Worth

It is with profound sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved Donna Marie Worth on May 6, 2026, at her home. Born on January 19, 1949, in Newport, Vermont, Donna's life was a testament to love, resilience, and unwavering dedication to her family and community. Donna was the cherished daughter of Theodore Gaylor and Grace Broome Gaylor, who instilled in her the values of kindness and generosity that she carried throughout her life. She was predeceased by her loving parents, her brother Bernard Gaylor, cherished grandson baby Tyler Worth, nephew Andrew Young, and her beloved husbands, Arthur Williams and Ronald Joel "Mac" Worth. Donna's journey began in Springfield, Massachusetts, where she married Arthur Williams in 1967. Their union was blessed with love and memories that would last a lifetime. After Arthur's passing, Donna found love again and married Ronald Joel Worth, affectionately known as "Mac," in 1976 in East Charleston, Vermont. Together, they built a life filled with laughter, warmth, and the joy of family. As a devoted mother, Donna is survived by her children, Ann-Marie Judd, Ronald Joel Worth Jr., Anthony Worth, and Rebecca Worth. She was a pillar of strength and guidance for her family, always there with an open heart and a listening ear. Donna's legacy is further carried on by her siblings: Jacqueline Gold, Theodore Jr. & Mary Gaylor, Mary Cameron, Vernal & Sandy Gaylor, Kim Gaylor, and Peggy Lamonda. Her bonds with her siblings were a cornerstone of her life, filled with cherished memories that spanned decades. Her spirit will live on through her grandchildren, Amanda Blake, Shelby Poutre, Blake Worth, Kaylee Worth, Brayden Worth, Keyira Worth, Tristan Worth, Mya Worth, Kameron Melendes, and Kaydance Melendes, and her great-grandchildren, Ryder Ferrin, Kolten Ferrin, Raye-Lyn Ferrin, Aliyah Poutre, and Adalyn Poutre. Each of them carries a piece of Donna's heart, and her love will guide them through every step of their lives. Donna was a beacon of light in her community, known for her compassion and the countless lives she touched with her kindness. Her sudden departure leaves a void that will never be filled, but her spirit will continue to inspire those who were fortunate to know her. A celebration of Donna's life will be held in the coming days, where family and friends will gather to honor a remarkable woman who lived with grace and gave selflessly to others. Her legacy is one of love, and she leaves behind a tapestry of memories that will forever be cherished. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in Donna's honor to a charity of your choice, reflecting her generous heart and spirit of giving. Donna Marie Worth will be dearly missed, but her memory will forever remain a blessing to all who loved her. May she rest in eternal peace, reunited with those who went before her, and forever embraced by the love she so richly deserved.
