Donald Heartley's Obituary
Donald Heartley, 68 of Bloomfield, passed away on November 22, 2020 at the Davis County Hospital in Bloomfield, Iowa. Donald Dean Heartley was born on September 15, 1952 to Charlie Marshall and Alph Faye (Henderson) Heartley in Albia, Iowa. He grew up with three sisters, Lilah, Rosemary and Maudetta, and a brother, Charles. Playing bingo, going fishing and listening to music were just a few of the things Donald enjoyed doing in his spare time. Donald lived several different places in his life, but seemed to love Iowa the most as he loved the midwestern snowstorms. His sister Lilah can remember the phone calls she would receive from an excited Donald when it would snow. "He always had to call me and let me know how much snow they got," she recalls. "He just loved it." Donald is survived by his sister Lilah Stokes (James W.), brother Charles F. Heartley, nieces Dora Stokes, Joann Moore, Deborah Postel, Karen Steele and Lisa Pettit, nephews Preston Heartley (Carren) and Marshall Heartley, 9 great- nieces and nephews and numerous extended family. Donald is preceded in death by his parents, sisters Rosemary Postel and Maudetta Price and a great-nephew Tyler Davis.
