She was born October 20, 1925 in Oslo, JL
FL, and was raised in Indian River
County. She was left in a basket on the doorstep of Hilmar and Bertha
Kjorsvik at three weeks old and was adopted by the Kjorsvik's in 1928.
Donna graduated from Vero Beach High School in 1943 and was a
member of the marching band. She attended Stetson University. In 1943,
she and Frederick Sockbeson eloped to be married before Fred was
deployed overseas during World War II.
Donna retired in 1989 after 30 years of service with the US Postal
Service in Wabasso, FL. She lived in Roseland, FL from 1959 to 2008
when she moved to West Melbourne to be closer to her son Steve and
daughter-in-law Sharon.
She was a longtime member of the Roseland Methodist Church.
Donna loved dashounds and cherished her dog "Tootsie".
She was very patriotic and an avid supporter of organizations honoring
our Armed Services. She was a charter member of the Sebastian
American Legion Auxiliary, a life member of the VFW Auxiliary and
charter member of the WWII Museum.
When Donna moved to Greenwood Manor Condos in 2008, she was
embraced by that condo family of friends and her family is eternally
grateful for their love, friendship and support for her. We are also grateful
for the love by her friend Bert, who lightened her life and her caretaker
Gloria for her gentle loving care and The Rock of Greenwood, John the
mailman.
Donna loved and cherished her family and so enjoyed our socials and
holiday gatherings. We celebrated and honored her 100th birthday in
October at her son's home with family. She was elated at the extent of
celebration of her life.
She was truly a foundation of our family with her heritage, character,
spunk and memories. Family and friends will miss her and are greatly
saddened by her passing. We are blessed by her long life and our many
memories. She is at home now in Sebastian and in Heaven.
Surviving are her son, Stephen Sockbeson, daughter-in-law Sharon of
West Melbourne, FL; two granddaughters Shelby Finkelstein and her
husband Andrew of Orlando, FL and Courtney Sockbeson of Brooklyn,
NY and four great-grandchildren: Kylie Sockbeson of Melbourne, FL,
Ella, Oliver, and Hazel Finkelstein of Orlando, FL. She is predeceased by
her husband, Fred Sockbeson (1992) and grandson, S. Kyle Sockbeson
(2016).
