A statement from The Greater Eureka Chamber of Commerce:

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Donna Wright, CEO and  President of the Greater Eureka Chamber of Commerce. Donna’s leadership at the Chamber for the past five years has been transformational for the community. Her passion for being a catalyst for business growth, a convener of leaders and a champion for a stronger community has enriched us all.

A special thank you to the first responders of Eureka, whose assistance is greatly appreciated. Our deepest sympathies are with her family and all those who loved her.
