Donna Carol Riley Lamb, 76, of Huntsville, Alabama, passed away peacefully on Saturday, March 14, 2026. She was born on April 17, 1949, in Paris, TN to the late Rob Roy Riley and Regina Ann Riley.
Donna is survived by her loving husband of 49 years, Melvin Fred Lamb, Jr.; her children Tara (Randy) Schauer, Paul Lamb, and Kevin (Andrea) Lamb; her siblings Rob (Brenda) Riley, Deborah (Doug) Moore, and Danae Riley; grandchildren Austin (Amber) Jones, Kaleb Jones, Chase Schauer, Ethan Lamb, Heather (Talon) Jarrett, Aidan Lamb, Sophie Swinford, Landon Lamb and Jaydan Lamb; and great-grandchildren Aveannah, Beckham, Railyn, Stetson, and many nieces and nephews.
Donna was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and friend. A 1968 graduate of Lee High School, she was active in her community as a longtime soccer coach for AYSO youth teams. She had a passion for sewing and took great joy in creating things for those she loved. She was also the Assistant P.E. teacher for Blossonwood Elementary during this time. Above all, Donna cherished time spent with her family, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, who brought her endless pride and happiness.
Her warmth, generosity, and loving spirit will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
“Every valley shall be filled in, every mountain and hill made low. The crooked roads shall become straight, the rough ways smooth.” Luke 3:5
