Donna Ann Henick (Eby) Scarborough- Donna Ann Henick (Eby) 61, passed away peacefully on Sunday May 29th, with her family lovingly by her side at Gosnell Memorial Hospice House. Born into this world a feisty spirit on Feb 15, 1961, Donna spent her childhood traveling and living in several places. Eventually landing back in Maine where her roots are, she attended cosmetology school in Portland and was often the go to stylist in her circle of friends. Donna loved spending time on the coast and at the ocean, Popham, Crescent and Fort Williams being a few of her favorite places. The ocean truly soothed her soul. She was an excellent cook, and living in Guam, learned how to make the absolute best egg rolls and Asian cuisine. In years prior, gathering with friends to share her culinary skills was something she loved to do, as well as volunteering within her community at local retirement communities and hospitals. Donna affectionately known as Grammy, adored and cherished her granddaughter Charlotte and the special bond they had. She was a one-of-a-kind woman with a good soul, she enjoyed the friendships that formed in her South Portland community and most recently the deep love and admiration for her partner John. Donna is survived by her daughter Janine Fifield and granddaughter Charlotte of Portland, father Ronald L. Eby and partner Carol Higgins of Windham, stepfather David Disbrow of San Diego CA, brother Ron C. Eby and his wife Julie of Windham, brother David Disbrow and his wife Sheila of Temecula, CA, brother John Disbrow and his wife Kelly of San Diego, CA. As well as several aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and cousins.
