Danielle and her husband, Frank, emigrated from Germany after WWII.  Danielle worked for the Chicago Library Association, Greenpeace, and for St Ann’s Parish as the parish secretary from the mid-eighties until her retirement in 2012.  She was an avid fan of rock concerts of the 60’s, a seasoned world traveler, and had a special love for animals and nature, supporting all kinds of wildlife and passing her knowledge to her young children and their friends.  Danielle also loved usual and beautiful things and art, as well as trying unique foods.
