Donna Rae "Punkin" Mowl, 80 of Beallsville, PA went to be with her Lord Tuesday, September 10, 2019.

She was born December 17, 1938 in Ontario, PA a daughter of the late Charles "Jim" and Evelyn "Marie" VanVoorhis Mowl Sr.

She was a life-long member of the Beallsville United Methodist Church and a member of the Vestaburg Senior Citizens Center and Beallsville Civic Association.

For the last few days of her life, Punkin could not speak well at all. But if she could, I imagine that it would have gone something like this: I have lived a long and happy life. 80 years is a long time. I have nothing but happy memories…. finding golf balls on the golf course and going fishing, playing cards at Aunt Annie's and Mary's house, sharing the fine art of needle work with my family and the community, getting to go to the senior center almost every day, Wednesday night Bingo at the Bentleyville VFD and the amazing overnight trips that I would take twice a year to Wheeling Island. And I must say that since I have been in my home in Beallsville, I have had the best, God given, friends, neighbors (Jeff Dolak) and family (Missy Rhodes) to look after me. But for the past five years, I was cared for by my niece, Amy Cook. She was my angel on earth. Now the time has come when I can say "Do not worry for me any longer, for at 2:15 am this morning (9-10-2019), I walked through Heaven's gates, I felt so much at home when God looked down and smiled at me from His great golden throne. I love you all!"

Surviving are her sister in law Cel Mowl and many nieces and nephews. She was the last of her immediate family.

Deceased in addition to her parents are three sisters, Saundra Siekiel, Mary Rhodes and Barbara Hermann and one brother Charles "Chuck" Mowl, Jr.

Friends will be received from 3 to 7 PM Monday, September 16, 2019 in the John B. Greenlee Funeral Home, Ltd. 2830 Main St. Beallsville, Pa 15313.
