Donna Ann Colombo, age 56, was a longtime resident of Highland Mills, New York before moving to Ocala, Florida in 2006. She passed away suddenly on Thursday, June 1, 2017. Donna was born on July 10, 1960, in Queens, New York to Dorothy Ward and Malcolm McEntee. She was one of three children.
Survivors include her son, James Skoufis and his wife Hillary; and her daughter, Melissa O’Neal and her husband Cory who recently became parents to Donna’s grandson Colton. She is also survived by her partner Brian Eppinger; sister Janet DeLuca; and brother Robert McEntee.
Donna worked as a supervisor at the United States Postal Service for many years before opening and running her own dance school in Orange County, New York. A graduate of New York City’s High School of Performing Arts, Donna touched so many people with her passion for dance and life. In Ocala, she comforted others as a home health aide.
She will be sorely missed by family as well as scores of friends in New York and Florida. In heaven, she joins her husband, John Colombo who predeceased her in 2006, and her mother, Dorothy McEntee of Ocala who recently predeceased her in January 2017.
A memorial service will be held at 11:00am on Saturday, June 10, 2017, at St. Patrick’s Church, 26 Hunter Street, Highland Mills with the Reverend Joseph Tyrrell officiating. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Forget Me Knot Equine Rescue, at 1250 SW 140th Avenue, Ocala, FL 34481 in memory of Donna.
