Othana Donnell, 76, of Port Aransas completed her life journey and took her place in her heavenly home on Feb. 2, 2021.

She was the manager of Island RV Resort in Port Aransas, TX from 2013 until her passing. She truly loved the island and her Island RV Resort family. Prior to her moving to Port Aransas, Othana was a manager for Southwestern Bell Telephone company for 24 years and the Economic Development Director for the City of Littlefield, TX for seven years. She was a member and served in several officer positions of Texas Horseshoe Pitching Association (THPA), Fannie Mae Horseshoe Club (FMHC), Early Risers Lions Club and several economic and historical organizations. She was also a member of the First United Methodist Church of Littlefield, TX.

Her first love was always her family. The grandkids and greatgrandkids would spend summers in Port A where “nanna” would take pride in teaching and informing all of them about the different kinds of shells in this area. Shelling was one of her many “beach” passions.

Othana is preceded in death by her parents, Otha and Iris Mae; husband, Bob; daughter, Leslee’; and great-granddaughter, Sophia.

She is survived by her daughter, Lisa Majors and husband, Joe of Port Aransas; brother, Ronnie Smith and wife, Mary of Fulto; stepson, Kenneth Donnell and wife, Janna of Graham; and stepdaughter, Shonda Baldridge and husband, Colton of Hale Center. Grandkids and Great-grandkids: Jessika, Abigail and Dominick of Littlefield; Rachael, Juan, Megan, Johnathan and Joshua of Denton; Chelsea of Lubbock; Kaitlin, Jayden, Jordan and Jace’Lynn of Lubbock; Edward of Graham; and Gracyn, Aidan and Cassidy of Hale Center.

Othana exhibited a life well lived in her compassion for others, love for her family and friends and her dedication to Christ.

A Celebration of Life will be scheduled for a later date.
