Donna M. (White) McClanahan, 81, of Haverhill passed away on May 15, 2026 at High Pointe Hospice House.

Donna was born on December 13, 1944 to John P. and Lorraine (St. Pierre) White and was a graduate of Haverhill High School, Class of 1962. She worked as a CNA for Baker-Katz Nursing home for many years; and when she wasn’t working Donna was all about her family, scratch tickets, Salisbury Beach, and road trips along the Mohawk Trail and western Massachusetts.

She had a huge heart, was loving, kind and beautiful, and when she talked kids listened – she gave good advice (sometimes not so soft) to all she loved. Donna was a devoted wife, mother, sister, grandmother and aunt.
