Donna B. Kranz, 79 of Watertown, passed away on Thursday, November 17, 2016 at Golden Living Center of Watertown.

She enjoyed knitting and crocheting gifts and enjoyed playing the piano. Donna was a terrific and patient pastor's wife, a sacrificial and loving mom, and a dear friend.

Allan Kranz of Glendale; her Children Nancy (Ward) Townsend of Marietta, GA and Paul (Valerie) Kranz of Glendale; Grandchildren Jonathan Townsend, Christopher (Julia) Townsend, Lauren Kranz, Marissa Kranz; Great-Grandchildren Joel Townsend, Jack Townsend (on the way); Sister Gloria (Timothy) Hammelman, Sister Priscilla (David) Kerry, Brother Larry (Nancy) Haas, Sister-in-Law Shirley Haas.
