Danielle Jean Callahan, Love saying your name and I am always sad this time of year. The dreadful day you went to Heaven and losing you. I always wished we had more time. But for certain we will be together in Heaven, heaven is for all eternity. Your beautiful face that had the most incredible smile. Your Daddy is with you and I miss him so much too. You have many loving family members who will are with you now. When ever I see a sunflower I always think of you Danielle. 16 years does not seem possible but it is the only day I remember that we were all together as one family. Sadly that is not the case today. Love you our heavenly Angel. XOXO Aunt Jean
