Donna Larene Loghry, 90, of Casper, Wyoming, passed away peacefully on April 19, 2026.

Donna lived a full and independent life marked by dedication, energy, and a deep love for learning and the people around her. She devoted many years to education as a science teacher at East Junior High, where she inspired countless students with her curiosity, discipline, and passion for understanding the world.

An athlete at heart, Donna loved staying active. She was an avid skier and enjoyed coaching both volleyball and basketball, sharing her competitive spirit and encouragement with generations of young athletes. Outside of the classroom and gym, she found joy in life’s simple pleasures—especially the thrill of a good garage sale and the treasures that came with it.

Donna never married and had no children of her own, but she was deeply loved by her family and played an important role in their lives. She is survived by her nephew Gary Loghry (Nicki) and their children, Ryan and Sara; her niece Kelly Thorson (Jerry) and their children, Chelcie, Chloe, and Garrett; and her niece Erin Potter (Tom) and their children, Avery, Reece, and Rogan.

She was preceded in death by her parents, her brother, and her great-great niece, Ava Thorson.

Donna will be remembered for her strength, independence, and the lasting impact she made as a teacher, coach, and beloved family member.
