Donna M. (Solberg) Anderson, age 80, formerly of the Town of Wheaton, passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on August 25, 2024 in Medford, WI.

Donna was born on March 8, 1944 to Oscar C. and Laura W.  (Strehlau) Solberg.  She graduated from Memorial High School in 1962.  Donna attended the Eau Claire Vocational School for accounting.  Then after 20 years of working at Uniroyal, she went back to CVTC to obtain her degree in computer programming which she greatly enjoyed.  She was later employed at MI Software in Eleva for 15 years.  Donna married James F. Anderson in 1963 and together they resided in the Town of Wheaton.

Donna was very much a lover of horses and was involved with the Sunny Valley 4-H Club in its early years.  She enjoyed horseback riding and her kennels (Cedarwood Kennels) where she raised and showed Collies and Labradors.  Donna loved to travel and took many trips across the United States and eventually made it to Europe.  She was an avid bowler for many years until health concerns required her to slow down.  Donna loved puzzles and was very much instrumental in starting Solberg/Anderson Family Trees.

Donna and James divorced in 2001.  She then met Conrad Schupp and her next adventure in life began.  In 2003, Donna and Conrad traveled to Alaska with her brother, Bruce, this being one of her favorite trips to Alaska.  She enjoyed going on many camping trips with her grandchildren. She moved to Medford, WI where she has resided the last 5 years.
