Donna M. Cushine

1949 — 2024

Rensselaer

Donna M. Cushine (Wollschlager), 75, passed away unexpectedly on Monday, November 4th, 2024 at the home she shared with her family. The daughter of the late Arthur and Mabel (Bently) Wollschlager, Donna was born on September 11th, 1949 in Albany, NY.

Donna was raised in Schodack Landing, NY, later relocating to Pottstown, PA with her husband, Edward Cushine. Donna worked at Blue Cross Blue Shield, where she would later retire. Donna also loved to travel; Hawaii being one of her favorite destinations. After the passing of her husband in 2005, Donna moved back to New York to be with her daughter, Kimberly Rock, and her grandchildren. Donna always enjoyed spending time with her family, checking out the local craft fairs and spoiling her beloved pets.

Donna dedicated her life to her family, she prioritized them above all else and her love for each of them was unfailing. Donna is preceded in death by her husband, Edward Cushine, along with her brother, Paul Wollschlager. She is survived by her daughter, Kimberly Rock (Frank) and her brother, Bruce Wollschlager; as well as her grandchildren, William Moak Jr. (Victoria), Aarika Moak (Martin), Kierstyn Lavare (Glenn) and Kaitlyn Lavare (Ivan). Donna also leaves behind her great granddaughter, Haylee Moak, whom she endlessly adored.

Donna’s presence is already deeply missed by her family and friends. Her spirit will live on through each of them; a reminder that family is everything.
