Tomorrow is the last day for Danielle's guest book to be on line.

i wish i had the money to keep it all year.

Thany you all for writing in the guest book. i have learned more about Danielle thanks to her friends and family.

May 4th will be a two year aniversary that Danny and i met at a ward potluck dinner in 2001. I have learned a lot from Danny in the past two years. She was out going, she talk to everyone, she beleived everyone is worth getting to know and i will all ways remember that. I reminded of a Michael McClean song, "Be that Friend", A friend will help you see all of the choices will lead, thats a kind of friend you never what to loose. Be that friend who is the kind that you pray you mind find and you will always have a best friend come what may. I love Danielle, and will carry her smile in my heart. I will carry the loving memories in my mind forever.

Thany you

When my uncle called to tell me of Danielle's death the news stabbed through my heart, was met by utter disbelief which has slowly settled into acceptance. I can only imagine how her immediate family and those priviledged to know her better than I did feel. And it IS a priviledge to know Danielle. I often thought that of all my relatives, (and we are a interesting, zesty lot) I would have liked to get to know Danielle better the most. She had an aura of love around her. And she was so genuine. She lived with my grandmother for a time before my grandma died and the love she felt for her was truly beautiful to see. I was really really grateful she was there and I know they must have loved the time they spent together. I loved sharing stories with Danielle. I remember the ones I told her about our great grandpa Dimmick (who taught me to play checkers and told me about so many of the horses he trained) She loved hearing those stories. And I remember seeing a wonderful picture her father took of a cougar on a ledge and her pride in telling me about his hunting ability and how nowadays he mainly hunted with a camera. I remember Danielle mourning and having so much faith once when her dog was lost, and how she just knew the dog would be found. The world is poorer for Danielle not being in it. There was just something pure and good about her. But Heaven is richer for sure. Those who got to know her will have a spot of sunshine in their hearts forever.

To David, Karen, Natalie, Jene, Laresse, and David and all,

It seems like only yesterday that a spunky little missionary showed up at my doorstep in Montana. I watched and listened as she boldly professed the Gospel to anyone who would listen and was an insturment in God's hand as she helped them to feel the spirit. No judge of persons, she saw all of God's children as having great worth. I watched as she brought a few old stick in the muds down to size with her quick wit and then softened their hearts with displays of service to many to mention. Danny lived inMontana after her misssion. She wrangled horses, painted wagons, hiked, hunted, and fished. She wupped us at raquetball and rummy. She learned to ski and do bookkeeping.

After a long hard fight with demons of the past, she earned a rest in the Saviors arms. "Well done my good and faithful servent"! We look forward to the time we meet with you again.

Danny we miss you,

Love, Your Montana Family

Ted, Stephanie, Nick, Doug, Chelsey, Natalie, Nathan, and Caitlin

David and family, my condolences and best wishes to you at the loss of Danielle. I know that she was a great friend to Joanne and that my children enjoyed their time with Danielle.

I was fortunate and blessed to have been part of Dannys Montana family.

My heart aches for her companionship

She loved feeding the cows at our home. The cows knew her by sight and they would come to the fence and moo at her. We spent most of every Sat, Sun and Monday together, watching movies, cooking, sewing, playing cards or just hanging out together. She was my substitute daughter, since we had a empty nest and Danny knew we needed someone here to love and share with. Her kindness and love to us will never be forgotten. I will always remember our times playing racquetball and eating oreos. May God grant her the peace to her soul she so much was seeking, and may the spirit be with us all as we seek comfort for the great loss that we have had. Thank you to Dannys family for accepting the only gift Dan and I had to offer them when they came for her Montana funeral and for bringing her into this world. They say time heals all wounds..I know the Lord will be with us. We loved Danny as our own. May we all find comfort in the Gospel which we have in common and which Danny loved so much.

Love,

Ranice and Dan Butterfield

To Dannielle's Family,

Danielle (Sister Dimmick)and I served as companions together in Great Falls, Montana. She was a great companion and friend. She loved the people that we taught and they could feel it. She loved the Lord and had a strong desire to serve Him. We shared both spiritual and fun times together. She will always have a special place in my heart. My thoughts are with your family and all those that loved Danielle as we mourn the loss of such a wonderful person.

"Yea and blessed are the dead that die in the lord shall come, and old things shall pass away, and all things become new, they shall rise from the dead and shall not die after, and shall receive an inheritance before the lord, in the holy city."

D&C 128:18

"...with out the dead we cannot be made perfect. Neither can they nor we...whith out those who have died in the gospell also it is necessary in the ushering in the dispensation of fulness of times."

We all love Danielle and i will always be thinking of her

I was surprise to see Danielle picture in the orbituary. I remember seeing her play basketball for her ward when you guys were in the Taylorsville Centeral Stake. She was always happy and she always had a smile on her face.

Mr. and Mrs.Dimmick

I was at Danny's kalispell funeral.

I never thought some thing like this could happen to my best friend. Danny was the one i could talk to.

we went to the movies and mini-golf up here in Montana. I wish i could have been there more for her. I think of that song "your the wind beneith my wings." She was my reason for laughing for crying, for living and for smiling. i never told her she was my insparation to do better.

I thank Danny for her friendship, for her out going personality, for visiting the unpopular and shy people, that was her way.

Thankyou all for coming to her Kalispell funeral.

Dear Karen and David,

We were so sorry to read about your daughter Danielle passing away. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

We now live in Hurricane so we will be unable to attend the funeral, but we wanted you to know that we are thinking about you and we will keep you in our prayers.

Dear Danny,

We recently came across a home video of you dancing around the room with our young children. Those little children are teenagers now, just like you were in the video. I shall remember sharing your laughter and your tears. Most of all, I shall remember your smile which could always light up a room!

I was just thinking about the first time we met. I liked you instantly and our friendship began with me teasing you about having “leaden feet.” That was because you wouldn’t hurry to get in the car. You teased me back, claiming I had a “leaden foot” on the gas pedal.

Oh Danny-girl, you no longer have “lead” to hold you down. May your spirit soar at last! You are loved.

Although it has been many years that I have had the honor of Danielle's presence, my fond memories will always be with me. The times I had the chance to visit my family in Utah were spent in happiness. I remember playing soccer with Danielle, David, Lariesse, and Natalie, and eating hamburgers, while enjoying the company of my family. Although so far away, time and distance will never let me forget Danielle and the family, and I wish them all peace.

1 Peter 4:12-13

Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you; but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ's sufferings, when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy.

Love to all

I feel so bad for your loss. Your family has my sympathy and love. Danny was like a sister to me and she took good care of me. She helped fill the empty space when my own sister left on her mission. I am glad to have known her during one of the happiest times of her life. She was a wonderful person.

Danielle touched my life for good an left an impression on my heart and soul. To me she was like a kid sister. I enjoyed being around her and talking with her. She was sweet, kind, sensitive, playful, independant and had a great sense of humor. These attributes will always be connected to my memory of her. I mourn for her loss at this time but have the knowledge that I will see her again and we will laugh together again as we did before. I'm sad that she has left us but rejoice that she has finally found peace in the presence of our Heavenly Father. When all is said and done it was an honor for me to know Danielle and be affiliated with her family. My heart and prayers go out to the family at this time.

I went to school with Danielle and LaRiesse but I was in Lariesse's grade and I also worked with Jene' in church volleyball and basketball. I never really knew Danielle but I heard about her from my brother Ryan who had classes with her, she seemed like a sweet person. May you be comforted and know that she will always be with us.
