Donna M. DiStefano Baker

Our Dear Mother/Grandmother (Beebs) Donna M. DiStefano Baker, 72 of West Chester, PA sadly passed away Saturday August 19, 2023 at her home.

Born February 23, 1951 in West Chester, PA she was the daughter of the late Pasquale DiStefano and the late Viola Pizii DiStefano.

Donna grew up in West Chester and graduated from Henderson high school. She worked as an Office Manager for years at West Chester Chiropractic.

She was the centerpiece of our family unit and will be missed dearly. Donna was a wonderful mother/grandmother who was always there when we needed her. She was loved by many.

Donna enjoyed gardening and spending time with her family. Beebs would spend hours in the yard moving plants from one place to another, somedays from sun up to sun down. She also enjoyed making her grandson’s favorite dish, baked macaroni and chicken cutlet. Then we all got to enjoy her presence while we ate the awesome meal, she just prepared for everyone. Beeb really enjoyed conversing for hours on end with everybody and anybody. She was everyone’s best friend that she encountered. She was just that type of special person. Donna was a giver and a caretaker and she made sure that her family was always in a good place.

Donna is survived by her daughter, Carla A. Baker, son-in-law Junior Cruz; grandchildren Christopher Cruz and wife Maggie Cruz, Dominick Cruz, two great-grandchildren Kylo and Owen Cruz; brother Richard DiStefano (Vinnie)

She was preceded in death by Pasquale DiStefano, Connie DiArcangelo and Emidio DiStefano.
