Donna Sweatt Denny

Donna Sweatt Denny (McAnear) passed away on February 7, 2026, at her home in Graham, Texas, surrounded by loved ones. Donna was born on June 18, 1951, to Donald and Elizabeth “Betty” (Jones) McAnear. She grew up in Jacksboro and graduated from Jacksboro High School in 1969. Donna married the love of her life, Donald L. Sweatt, on January 10, 1978. Over the next 26 years, they built a home and family as well as working together in Don’s law practice. Donna loved spending time with family, especially at the lake. She enjoyed playing tennis, shopping at the Galleria, and trips to the Casino. She had a talent for remodeling houses and could even turn a tiny single-bedroom garage apartment into a beautiful five-bedroom two-story home.
