Burial will be at Resthaven Memory Gardens in rural Le Mars, Iowa. Donna Mae Taylor was born on March 1, 1935 in Kingsley, Iowa to George and Thelma (Knudsen) Taylor. She grew up on her family's farm in rural Plymouth County, Iowa and attended school at Le Mars Community Schools. After her education, she continued to live on the farm and help her family. She began a letter correspondence with Rivola Bennette who was serving in the United States Navy. They wrote back and forth for almost a year before they became engaged. They were united in marriage on January 1, 1954 at the Methodist Church in Merrill, Iowa while Rivola took a short leave from the Navy. He returned to his station in Newport, Rhode Island and Donna joined him there several months later. They made their home in Newport for a short time and after Rivola was honorably discharged from the Navy in 1957, they moved to Seattle, Washington. After Seattle, they moved around the country living in: rural Merrill, Iowa, Denver, Colorado, Crescent, Iowa, Dixon, Iowa, Le Claire, Iowa, and Davenport, Iowa. They lived in Davenport for many years, raising their family there. Donna was primarily a homemaker, but she did work for a short time at a women's clothing store and also did party sales for several different companies. When Rivola retired, Donna and Rivola moved to Climbing Hill, Iowa for a short time before finally settling in Le Mars, Iowa. Donna enjoyed her arts and crafts, especially crocheting and embroidering. She had a fascination for lighthouses and collected all different types of light house memorabilia. She was considered to be the 'neighborhood mom', and always enjoyed opening her home to her children's' friends and other children in the neighborhood. Donna is survived by her husband of over 62 years, Rivola Bennette; children: Dennis Bennette of Davenport, Iowa, Janet (Robert) Hicks of Calamus, Iowa, and Terrie (Randy) Mock of Colorado; grandchildren: Leroy, Sarah, Melissa, Jason, Miranda, and Vanessa; 14 great grandchildren; and many other nieces, nephews, and other relatives. Donna is preceded in death by her parents; sons: Daniel Rivola Bennette and Gary Wayne Bennette; and great grandson, Andrew. [Courtesy: Rexwinkel-Carlsen Funeral Home; Le Mars, IA]
