of West Memphis, AR

January 4, 1938 - November 1, 2025

Donna Lou Brogdon, 87, of West Memphis, Arkansas, passed away peacefully on November 1, 2025. Born in Steele, Missouri, to Otho and Virginia Stanfield, Donna lived a life filled with love, faith, and kindness. A 1956 graduate of Blytheville High School, Donna devoted 32 years to teaching at Maddox Elementary, where she touched countless lives with her gentle heart and passion for education.

She shared 65 beautiful years of marriage with her husband, James Brogdon, and together they built a loving family. She is survived by her children Cathey (John) Wylie, Chris (Melissa) Brogdon; grandchildren Ashley (Coby) Henslee, Weston (Kathryn) Wylie, Zachary (Shelby) Brogdon, Madison (Luke) Ferguson, Meredith Wylie, and Catherine Wylie; and great-grandchildren Kenzlee Burch, Lake Laughter, Lexie Claire Laughter, Charlie Brogdon, Grayson Ferguson, Bristol Brogdon, and Cooper Ferguson.
Donna is also survived by her brother Lynn Stanfield and preceded in death by her siblings Sue Peterson and George Stanfield.

Donna's life was rich with simple joys tending to her flowers, watching birds from her porch, and taking road trips with James, friends, and family. She found great delight in her grandchildren's activities, cheering on a good baseball game, and taking drives with James to look for deer.

Above all, Donna's unwavering faith was the foundation of her life. She was a dedicated member of the church where she shared her love, compassion, and servant's heart with all who knew her.

Those who were blessed to know Donna will remember her as someone who never met a stranger, whose warmth, loyalty, and faith-filled spirit brightened every room she entered.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Friday, November 7, 2025, at 1:00 PM at Missouri Street Church of Christ, 1600 N. Missouri Street, West Memphis, Arkansas.
