Donna C. Groff-Kurtz, 45

Donna, 45 of Sanatoga, beloved wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt and friend passed away suddenly at home on January 8, 2025. She was born on May 12, 1979 in Phoenixville to Donald R. Groff and Judith A. (Riley) Groff (deceased).

Donna was a 1997 graduate of Owen J. Roberts High School where she was a competitive athlete in field hockey and softball. She received a bachelor's degree from the University of Phoenix and worked at Verizon, Crystal Springs, SEI and MRO. She was a dedicated and hard worker wherever she was employed and in short time rose through the ranks. Donna loved watching baseball, cooking, working in her flower garden, her dog Rosco and especially her 3 boys. Donna was known for her warm personality and her ability to make every event fun and light hearted with her free spirit and her dedication to family and friends. Donna's life was a perfect example how love, kindness and strength can overcome what life threw at you.

Donna is survived by her husband Samuel Kurtz III, her 3 children Tyler Groff, husband of Allison (Tarr) Groff, twin boys Samuel Kurtz IV, Jonathan Kurtz, father Donald Groff, brothers Steven Groff, Andrew Groff, sisters Jessica (Groff) DiFuria, husband Anthony DiFuria, Barbara Groff and Cynthia (Groff) Willauer, who will forever cherish her memory. She is now reunited with her mother Judith Groff.

A celebration of Donna's life will be held on January 24, 2025 at St. Lukes Fellowship Church, 200 West Main Street, Trappe PA. Visitation will be 5-7 PM with a service following at 7PM. Family and friends are invited to join us in honoring her beautiful life.
