In Memory Donna Norcross Donna Lee Norcross passed away Monday, July 30th, 2018 after a very sudden diagnosis of pancreatic cancer in Ames, Iowa. A Memorial service was held on August 8 , in Story City IA. Donna was born January 26, 1941, in Webster City, Iowa, to Howard and Arris (Brown) Richardson. She was raised on the “Richardson Prairie Farm” east of Webster City. After graduating from Webster City high school in 1958, the family purchased and moved to the present farm just south of Story City, Iowa. She attended Jr College at Webster City Junior College, Stephens College, Columbia MO. and Iowa State University. She married Robert Norcross, June 6, 1966 in Story City, Iowa. She worked as a bank office in Algona, Luverne and Huxley for many years until her husbands’ death in 198 9. She was a bookkeeper for Heart of Iowa Coop starting in 1990 (and later Key Cooperative) until she retired in 2015. When Donna was three years old, her parents decided she needed a pony and the start of the Royal Pony Farm was created with ponies named “Queeny and King.” That was the beginning of a love affair with Shetland ponies and resulted in the buildup of a herd that numbered 100-150 through the years. Donna moved to a fi e- acre farm a few miles west of Roland, Iowa, continuing the Royal Pony Farm which her father had started, to raise registered Shetland ponies. Donna was former president of the Midwest Classic Shetland Breeders Association Club, (MCSBA), a club of which her late father, Howard, was a founding offic member. She won multiple awards and recognitions showing her ponies. In her younger days, Donna liked to play golf and snowmobile with her husband, Bob. Donna was a feisty, independent women that worked hard and was proud to be a farm girl and not afraid to get a little dirty. She was preceded in death by her husband, Robert Norcross; father, Howard Richardson; brother-in-law and fellow pony enthusiast, Robert Moore. She is survived by her mother, Arris Richardson of Story City, Iowa and Amarillo, Texas; sister and owner of Royal Pony Ranch, Shirley Moore, of Amarillo, Texas and brother, Brian (Janet) Richardson, of Story City. As well as numerous nieces and nephews. In lieu of fl wers, the family asks that donations be made to the America Shetland Pony Club, address 81-B East Queenwood Road, Morton, IL 61550.14 The Journal • October/November 2018
