Donna Maria (Sturm) Hieber, 78, a resident of Moon Twp. since 1975, originally from Greenfield in Pittsburgh, passed away on Wednesday, October 29, 2025, at St. Clair Hospital. Born in Pittsburgh on April 25, 1947, she was one of two children to the late Francis "Frank" and Bertha Elizabeth "Betty" (Mesaros) Sturm. Donna was a 1965 graduate of St. Rosalia in Greenfield and immediately was accepted into the Ohio Valley Hospital School of Nursing. In 1968, she graduated from Ohio Valley Hospital as a Registered Nurse and her nursing career took off. She worked at several hospitals beginning in ICU at Ohio Valley Hospital, moving to Homestead Hospital ICU, and Waynesboro Hospital ICU in Waynesboro, VA. She ended up specializing in Geriatrics, working at Kane Regional Hospital in Ross Township where she retired as a nursing supervisor. She was once a nurse and forever a nurse, showing Christ's love through her encouragement, care, and compassion. Donna loved gardening and plants. Donna also loved shopping at yard sales, thrift stores, and consignment shops and she always walked away with something useful and unique. She was a member of Most Sacred Heart of Jesus (MSHJ) - St. Catherine of Siena Church, the Christian Ladies Society, and the Ohio Valley Hospital Nurses' Alumni Association. Donna's life was blessed by the gift of faith, and she was forever grateful for that blessing. She was the beloved wife for 55 years to Robert E.

Plant a tree: How does it work
When your purchase is complete, a post will be made on the tribute wall of the deceased signifying the planting of a memorial tree.
An official certificate recognizing your purchase will be included with your email receipt. You can then forward the email to the family or print it and give it to them personally.
After an order is placed, our forestry partners will plant the tree in the area of greatest need (nearest the funeral home), according to the planting schedule for the year.
Due to seasonal conditions, the tree planting takes place during the spring and summer.
