Donna Mayberry

Donna Mayberry Fletcher is a fictional character on the popular mystery series "Murder, She Wrote" played by Debbie Zipp. Donna married Grady Fletcher, the nephew of the main character Jessica Fletcher in an episode of the fifth season called "Something Borrowed, Someone Blue".Donna had appeared previously in two episodes, the first of which was "Just Another Fish Story", in which she was arrested for the murder that had occurred that episode, however it was considered to be self defence, and she must have done some community service or instead gotten off as she married Grady only a year later.

She was a very shy girl and was also an accountant like her father, although it was later discovered that she only pursued that career to make her father happy. She ended up giving up accounting after the first time we saw her to be a normal housewife, much to the horror of her father.

Family

Donna's father was Franklin Mayberry, a very successful and ruthless accountant, whom Grady had at one point worked for and was fired by, although by the time we meet Franklin it seems that he has already forgotten this, as Donna said he probably would have. Donna's mother was Maisie Mayberry, an extremely neurotic woman who spent most of the wedding worrying about one thing or another. Also at the wedding were Donna's paternal Uncle Ben, and her maternal Uncle Ziggy with his new wife Valerie.
