Donna Rosamond Siggins Bashford

July 3, 1945 - October 15, 2015

Donna Bashford passed away from complications related to cancer on October 15, 2015. She was born July 3, 1945, to Donald and Rosamond Siggins in Cody, Wyoming, the youngest of three children. She grew up on a ranch on the South Fork of the Shoshone River 40 miles from town. Donna attended elementary school in a one-room school, the Valley School, and graduated from Cody High School. Donna met her husband, Howard Bashford, while attending the University of Wyoming. They were married on August 29, 1964, and recently celebrated their 51st wedding anniversary. They lived primarily in California, Arizona and Utah. Donna was the loving mother of six children: Perilynn Krieger, Troy (Lisa) Bashford, Twila (Brian) Bisk, Lisa (Ryan) Cuff, Bradley (Annette) Bashford, and Benson (Kyle) Bashford. Donna found great happiness in the activities of her children and 24 grandchildren. Her greatest joy was being around them. She loved being referred to as “Nana” by her children, grandchildren and friends, and one of her favorite sayings was “My Best Friends Call Me Nana”. Donna taught her family by example how to find joy and happiness in life through service to others. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. She particularly enjoyed working with children and young women and had a natural ability to find those who needed a friend and someone to love them. Her door was always open to anyone in need of a friend. Donna loved everything related to the outdoors: animals and wildlife, her chickens, and her garden. She was known in the neighborhood as the chicken-lady as she frequently gave away the eggs her chickens produced to her neighbors. She will be sorely missed by her family and many friends. Funeral Services will be held 10:00 am, Saturday, October 24, 2015 at the LDS Chapel at 1111 E. Knox Road, Tempe, Arizona. Visitations will be on Friday, October 23 from 6:00 - 8:00 pm and Saturday prior to services, from 9:00 to 9:45 am both at the LDS Chapel on Knox Rd. Interment will be at the Mesa City Cemetery directly after the service.
