On April 14, 1972, she married Perry Melvin Johnston, the love of her life. Together they ranched and farmed, raising sheep and cattle on their ranch in Wallowa. They spent each day together working in the lambing barn, working the fi elds and enjoying the life they both loved. She was active in the 4-H programs, rural fi re district, tri-county wool pool and numerous other organizations. She enjoyed socializing and having a good time. She loved dancing, horseback riding and four-wheeler trips. Donna Mae is survived by her husband Perry of 45 years, daughters Bobbie Lou Baker and Schevelle Wortman and son Ralph Hewett.
