Our beloved mother, sister, aunt, cousin, and faithful friend arrived in Piqua, Ohio on February 4, 1975, the daughter of the proud parents, Otis and Eveleen Graves.

In 1993, she received her education in the public school system attending Piqua High School and Upper Valley JVS. She also played softball when growing up being coached by her father for many years. She also enjoyed doing cheer and going to the 36 Skate Club and also cruising on the weekend.

Danielle was a lovely kind spirit who was always smiling, praying for someone or giving to someone in need. Danielle never meant a stranger; she was a loving and caring person. Oh yeah and was always taking pictures.

On May 22, 2000, she was blessed with her daughter Kennedy Alexandria Graves.
