Donna Varney, a lifelong resident of Manchester, passed away suddenly in the city she called home throughout her life.

Donna was the beloved wife of Richard E. Varney and a devoted mother to her three children, Misty Varney, Erin Varney, and Patrick Varney. She was also a proud grandmother to four grandchildren, Camren, Joseph, Destiny, and Miah, who brought her great joy and love.

Donna dedicated many years of her life to working as a special education teacher.

She had a special love for the ocean. Whether enjoying seafood, swimming in the water, or simply lying on the beach and taking in the sound and beauty of the ocean, those moments brought her happiness. The beach was a place where she could relax, enjoy life, and make memories with the people she loved.

Donna was one of four siblings and shared a particularly close bond with her brother, Charles Parr. She was also a loving aunt to her nieces and nephews and cherished the relationships she shared with her extended family.

Donna will be remembered as a loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, teacher, and friend.

She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her. Her memory will forever remain in the hearts of her family and friends. A Celebration of Life will be held at Belmont Hall, 118 Grove St., Manchester, NH on Friday, October 9 at 4 PM.

The Cremation Society of NH is assisting the family with arrangements. To view an online Memorial, leave a message of condolence, or for more information, visit www.csnh.com.
