Donna Lynn Hardin Preston, age 67, of Rineyville, KY, passed away on August 8, 2024, surrounded by her family in a room filled with love.
2 Timothy 4:7 - “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.”
She was born on September 19, 1956, in Hardinsburg, KY, daughter of the late Claud Victor Hardin and Dorothy Louise Hardin. Along with her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Monty Preston; and brother-in-law, Bob Marcum.
Donna was a graduate of Meade County High School (Class of ’74), and obtained her Associate’s degree in Nursing from Elizabethtown Community College. She touched the lives of so many people during her 30-year nursing career in the Baptist Health Hardin Emergency Department. Donna had a servant’s heart and loved helping people, whether it was her family, her friends, or her patients. No matter the circumstance, she met everyone with patience, kindness, and joy, and was a blessing to her community and those she loved. She loved camping, relaxing with her dogs, and anything purple. She was a devoted mom, sister, aunt, bonus mom, and friend. Donna was extremely loved and will be very missed.
She is survived by her children, Dawn and Brandi Preston; brothers, Forrest (Vicki) Hardin, John (Lisa) Hardin, Bob (Cammy) Hardin, and Leonard (Robin) Hardin; sister-in-law, Audrey Marcum; two sweet puppies, Luci and Lola; and a host of nieces, nephews, and friends.
