Donna Kuss

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Donna Kuss, who left us peacefully on May 9th, 2025, at the age of 68 after a courageous battle with cancer. She was born on April 17, 1957, daughter of the late Milton and Evelyn Kuss. She married Wesley Springstube in 1978 and had 5 children together. Donna started working at Dufeck Manufacturing at the age of 16 until she was 45. She then started a career at Krohn’s Cheese Factory (Agropur) until retirement in 2024.

Donna was a devoted mother, grandmother and the heart of a close-knit loving family. A role she cherished above all else and whose lives were endlessly enriched by her warmth, wit, and unwavering support. She was an avid puzzle enthusiast, and could often be found solving crosswords or a jigsaw puzzle. She had a passion for gardening and bargain shopping. She had a knack for finding the best bargains and delighted in the thrill of a great deal. Her favorite time of the year was summer where she could lay outside sunbathing with a margarita in her hand. Her ultimate favorite thing to do was to host gatherings where she could sit and visit with family and friends.

Survivors include her 5 children, Tanya (Sam) Matos, Chris (Gina) Springstube, Becky (Brandon) Springstube, Chad (Stacey) Springstube, and Josh Springstube. 2 step children, Jessica (Chris) Springstube & Jeffery Springstube. 14 grandchildren, Kiana, Alliyah, Dezi, Corey, Valerie, Elenah, Ryker, Oktober, Kyri, Elijah, Austin, Serenity, Elbert, & Aria. 4 siblings, Clifford (Connie) Kuss, Greg Kuss, Kevin Kuss, Debbie Krerowicz and many nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents Milton & Evelyn Kuss, sisters Sharon Kuss, Darlene Kuss, Gloria (Bill) Dufeck, brother in-law John Krerowicz, sister in-law Debra Kuss, and niece Sheri Rockey.

Donna's legacy is one of love, resilience, and a spirit that found happiness in life’s smallest treasures. She will be deeply missed but lovingly remembered by all who were lucky enough to know her. Family and friends may gather on Saturday, May 17, 2025 at 3719 Allen Rd, Green Bay, WI 54311 from 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm to celebrate, share the joys she brought to your life and to have one last margarita in the sun with her.
