I am speechless... I was googling Danielle to find out what she has been up to. I used to work at Buske in Edwardsville in 2005 for a short time. I actually adored her very much... She was the sweetest woman I have ever met. Would someone please tell me what happened to her... how did she pass away? I will never ever forget Danielle. I am so sorry to her family and friends. She will always be in my heart.

Although I only knew Danielle for a few months as one of her vendors she was such a sweet, nice, gentle and down to earth person. I cannot imagine the impact this has made on other people that knew her longer. My thoughts and prayers goes out to all of Danielle's family and friends.
