Donna Marie Shields

Donna Marie Shields passed away October 14, 2024, at the age of 79. She was a native and resident of Revere and Malden. Donna truly knew that it was more blessed to give than to receive. Her generosity knew no bounds.

Donna was a loving mother, “Nana”, sister, Auntie, friend and a beautiful soul who would help anyone. Her radiant smile lit up any room she entered. She lived life to the fullest and especially loved spending time with her family and friends.

Although Donna is gone, she will live in our hearts forever.  She was the daughter of the late Sabino Cataldo and Mary Lou Arbo; the beloved mother of Joseph Michael Shields of Malden, William R. Shields, III and his wife, Johnna of Naperville, IL and the late John Albert Shields; the devoted sister of Francine Cataldo of Revere and the late Robert Cataldo and his surviving wife, Diana of Middleton; and the loving grandmother of Logan Shields.

A celebration of Donna’s life will be held at a later date.  In lieu of flowers, contributions in Donna’s memory to the MSPCA, 350 S. Huntington Ave., Boston, MA 02130 would be sincerely appreciated.  Arrangements by the Cafasso & Sons Funeral Home, Everett. 617.387.3120
