I came to Great Falls from Missoula in 1989 and out of all of the city Mayors I knew here, Dona was one of the more personable, easily accessed city officials I’ve known. Seemed she always took the time to visit even though she was very busy.
Unlike other previous Mayors of the city, Dona never passed up the opportunity to engage. She was always out front and center, even during some of the more difficult times.
Dona Stebbins, was the mayor of Great Falls from 2006 through 2010, and passed away on Friday, April 26, 2024.
During her time in office, Stebbins was a fierce advocate for the rights of all individuals, regardless of their background or status. She fought tirelessly to ensure that everyone in Great Falls had access to the resources and opportunities they needed to thrive.
I’d like to express my gratitude for Stebbins’ years of service and dedication to the city. She will be remembered as a true leader and champion for the people of Great Falls.
Dona seemed to always jump at the chance to promote the people and the city she dearly loved as shown in the video below – She will be missed.
