Secretary

Donna J. Buse was born and raised in Lincoln, Illinois.  She and her husband, Randy, have lived in Lincoln their entire lives.  She has two daughters:  Donalene (Jim) DeWitt of Mt. Pulaski, and Rhonda Buse, also of Mt. Pulaski. She has an adorable grandson, Riley, adopted from South Korea, who has been a real blessing to the entire family.

Donna is a graduate of Lincoln Community High School and Brown’s Business College of Springfield.  She had previously worked at Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital for 17 years, and then at Economy Fire and Casualty Company for 12 years until they closed.  At that time, she came to Fricke-Calvert-Schrader Funeral Home as Secretary.  This was a totally different “pace” for her, but she dearly loves it.  She enjoys being able to do that “one last thing” for friends and families.

She is a member of the First Baptist Church, serving on the Women of Faith Fellowship, Finance Committee, and the Building Committee.  She enjoys vacationing at Lake of the Ozarks, hot air ballooning, and playing Euchre with her family and friends.
