Donna J. Choate (Gamage), 66, of Rehoboth, MA, passed away peacefully on April 8, 2023 in her home surrounded by loved ones.  Born in Riverside, RI, Donna always reminisced about the Crescent Park Looff Carousel and Haines Memorial State Park; where her and her husband’s love story began. Donna received her Master’s degree from Salve Regina and was a Holistic Counselor. She was a healer and lover of crystals and astrology and received many accolades for her ability of transfer light and healing. Her kindness and compassion for every person, animal and God knew no bounds.  It was this genuine love that made every encounter with Donna memorable; and of course, her signature hugs. In her free time, she could be found engaged with a good book or enjoying one of her many hobbies (cooking, golfing, horseback riding with her daughter or being out in nature). The list of how remarkable Donna was is never-ending; she will be gravely missed by her family and friends.

She is survived by her loving husband of forty-three years, Robert (Bob) Choate and her cherished children, Kira Choate of Rehoboth, MA., Dashiell Choate and his wife Samantha also of Rehoboth, MA . She was the treasured sister of the late Doug Gamage.

Her funeral service will be private.
