Danila Perossa Obituary
A graduate from University of Houston with a Fine Arts degree, she led a full and colorful life. She was a model for Neiman Marcus, she was a Master Gardner, a great baker, an amazing quilt maker and the list goes on. Danila was a creative soul, who liked to do anything that would allow her to work with her hands. She worked in construction and home inspections. Her Number 1 past time was to go junking with her sisters and friends to find a great deal. She had an amazing eye to spot out the treasures and then flip them on ebay.
She also was one of the original staff members at Anderson Fair. Man could she tell you stories about the place and what they did there, stories that even when she was being filmed for the movie "For the Sake of the Song", not all of them could be aired.
Danila was a unique individual. She told you exactly how she felt and you could take it or leave it. People were drawn to her frankness. It was almost as if people were desperate to hear the truth and she was the one to tell it. She also had this unique style and beauty that when you saw her you could not help but be awed by her. She was a very generous person. She cared so much for her family and friends that she would do almost anything to ensure that they were taken care of. Even through her toughness, she was one of the most compassionate people. She would offer her home to strangers if they needed a place to stay. She cared for the environment, recycled everything and was very emphatic that everyone around her does the same.
We are so privileged to have had her in our lives and she is going to be greatly missed by all who she came into contact with. Thank you Danila for being the person you were! We know you will continue to watch over us and scream at us when needed. We love you!
Danila's Celebration of Life will be 2:30 pm Wednesday, November 14, 2012 in the Chapel of Earthman Resthaven Cemetery. There will be a visitation in the Chapel starting an hour prior to the service. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Center for Recycled Art (aka Texas Art Asylum), 1230 Houston Ave. Houston, TX 77007, 713.224.5220.

Danila,
I came to your grave with Nerina, Ari and Alex to
THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING.
We couldn't say Addio but
Ciao and Arrivederci
because we truly believe we'll see you al di la'!!!

Thank you Danila. Again, you rescued me.
I drove off with my work files and cellphone on top of the car. A considerate man pick it up on the side of the road some two blocks away,
and returned it. The binder was all frazzled but contents intact including the cellphone. I called out and you answered. I hope, pray and depend on
you to carry me thru these last years.
They are as hard as mamma warned us Forgive me, I need you and love you.
Goodbye Danila.

Dearest Danila,
Your passing has left us all with a big void. Unexpected and without warning you moved on to a new world. Maria, Matteo and I always think about you. Our hope is that you are in a good place next to your mom and dad and that you have joined up with Zia and Zio. This year has been particularly difficult with their loss but we find comfort in thinking they found you to help guide the way with your smile. Our thoughts are with you and we send all our love. Giorgio, Maria e Matteo

Danila,
I pray you hear me. I talk to you every day. I know you are very busy as you have such a big family that calls on you too. I'm sure your ears are burning because Luigi and I talk about you often. He misses you still so much, as I do. Your Geese and Rooster are in my new kitchen window and I pray they serve as a guidepost should you come visit. You will always live in my heart and I will always hear your squeaky, high pitched voice telling me to do what feels right. Luigi sits at my feet. He knows I'm writing this. We love you and miss you.
Your light was exceptionally bright...Danila my friend.

Sweet wonderful Danila,
I have sooo many wonderful memories! From the first time we met and climbed a tree in your backyard...you were 15 and in pants but I was 17 and in a dress! I just didn't go as high as you did...but I was a tree climber too and had to make sure you knew that... Then there was the time I was in Japan with two little ones and Mother wrote that you and a guy had sat with them at an Astros game, and you had on a mini skirt and looked great. You had designed it for a class. I knew she would not be saying the same thing about me in a mini! Kinda stung...but I could imagine what a glamorous life you were leading! Then the quilt show and you actually bought the coveted charm necklace...that time everyone was envious! But we truly were just excited to know the person who owned it. And feed sacks and junking and fabrics and quilts...all things we shared. Just never lived close enough to do it together...but someday we could...I'll talk to God about letting us be neighbors in Heaven!! See you there, Cora

Dear Danila,
The day I found you dead in your bed
was the most shocking and saddest day of my life. So totally unexpected.
I miss you more than you'll ever know.
May God hold you and have mercy on your
soul. I love you.
Your brother Sergio

Meany Nila.... Can you believe that's what we (Lisa and I) actually referred to you as?! You just wanted us to think you were mean - yet all along I don't think we could have been loved any more than by you... my most favorite person ever.
I miss you more than words can say. I have so many items you gave me or now that have become mine that remind me of you every day. You are all over my house! I often channel my "inner Danila" when I get frustrated and start to curse like a sailor - thanks for that! Grant and Adam (and Brad) get it - they know where that comes from and there's a lot of forgiveness in them. I chuckle inside because I sound like you - and ohhh how I love you. You are my idol, my inspiration for so much. It's your love of design and your creativity that I admire so much. I so often look at things and think Danila would love that. Sometimes as simple as a sweet pattern - you and I both share that love for detail. I could go on and on and on. Just wanted you to know that although I'm still mad you left us all I KNOW YOU ARE WITH US. You've just got to be.
Please come see me - I miss you so.
All my love and good vibe coming your way. Hugs and love to Nonni and Nonno too please... miss them tons too.
You'll always be with me.

Dear Danila,
It's been a year now since your death and you have been missed terribly. There's very little comfort I can give to Annamaria who loved you so and has grieved for you daily. It's time to say goodbye, my friend. Love you and until we meet again, Irene

My dearest friend,
It's been a little over a year now and I still don't want to believe you are gone. I still have your emails from the last week you were here marked as new because I miss getting them so much. I keep your phone number in my cell phone and always will. It breaks my heart to think about you but at the same time I laugh when I think of all the funny times we had. You will be in my heart forever... until we meet up again girlfriend....

Dear family of Danila,
I've written to you already, but I want you to know that I remember Danila and you, her loving family, every day. Danila was specially on my mind and in my heart and prayers on November 10, her 1st anniversary. May she rest in peace.
Reading your precious notes to Danila brings tears to my eyes and a lump in my throat. Evidently, she was very near and dear to all of you. I feel close to her as well, and I miss communicating with her, tho' she is really near in spirit. Yes, she is with your parents, whom I met when I worked at Casa de Esperanza in Houston. I'll always remember them, a precious couple.
I pray that you have a blessed Advent season and a peace-filled Christmas.
God bless you, one and all.

My dearest sister, a year has passed and still can hear "where you be?" as I drove from Houston to Spicewood. Can't tell you how comforting that was to me, can't tell you how much you meant to me ....my life long sounding board!
I'm sorry I wasn't there for you when you needed me the most. I'm beginning to believe that you wanted it that way. You did so much for us but you never wanted us to do for you. On your anniversary, Nerina Sergio and
I came to your grave with flowers. We were touched that someone special had left you flowers already.
As I feel a bit more accepting of this tragic loss and beginning to
let you go, I find comfort in believing that it's only for a while. I feel you close
in a sound, a flower, a word or a mood. As I was cooking Thanksgiving day, a real whiff of smoke crossed my face and I said "Danila
you are here with us too." It made me happy.
I had hoped you would carry me on your back when old as I carried you on mine when young, I now pray that you'll have a rocking chair next to yours on that porch in heaven so that we can while away for eternity together.
You are always in my heart Danila and I will see you "al di la' della vita"

Danila,
I have refused to go to this website until now because I didn't want to believe that you were actually gone. I'm waiting every day for your phone call or your quirky, if not bizarre, e-mails. I am so glad that we spent most of the day before your final one going from estate sale to estate sale and then going to the 99 Ranch Market on I 10 to buy me more fruit at which point you pointed out that I was going to die of malnutrition because all I eat is fruit. I can no longer drive by your house or go to Value Village (your favorite store). It just hurts too much. As mamma would say “go un groppo qua che no me lassa star”. I feel guilty being away from my own house thinking you will be coming by and I won't be there. By your passing, you have shattered my life dream of retiring and spending the rest of our days going together to junk stores and estate sales. It's just not fair. I am comforted only by the fact that you are now with mamma and papa' and the rest of the family and friends. We all miss you terribly including Alex (she's frequently pointing to things that aunt Nini gave her). Rest in peace my dear sister until we meet again.

Please accept my condolences and prayers for Danila and for you. I have enjoyed sharing friendship with Danila, and I enjoyed our e-mail communications. She was a delightful and unique lady. May she rest in God's peace.

~The Francis Family
Dear Danila,
Although I've only known you less than a year, you brought a lot of sensibility, as well as joy and laughter to my life. I thank you for looking out for my family, as you worked tirelessly with us on our new old home's 203K loan. We could not have come as far as we did without your help and guidance. Remember, we laughed a lot about my ancestral altar - now I can't believe you've joined them on the other side. I know that you're shining your light down from Heaven, and I'm so happy to have known you!

Well, my dear friend tomorrow is the feast day of your name saint, St. Lucia. So you'll be celebrating it together with her in Heaven! Down here we're still trying to come to grips with your departure. Please hold my mama and my Aunt Bernice in your arms for me, Danila. Please pray for us that we may be worthy to join you when our time comes. We love you and miss you and cry for you. Knowing you're there makes it more imperative to try to reach Heaven. It feels so lonely here. I'll love you forever, dear Danila.

Danila, my dearest and faithful friend, words cannot say how much I miss you and grieve the loss of your presence. I miss your laugh, your quirky hidden smile when you said something you know you shouldn't have said and reading the enjoyment in your eyes. I miss our marathons of intimate conversation knowing you cared and your wise and sound judgement of character. God's Word says, "Iron sharpens iron." I miss you yelling at me knowing you were the friend that God placed in my life to be the iron that sharpened me into the strong woman who I am today. I think God placed us in each others life for balance and to nurture those parts that were not nurtured. I caught myself not wanting to date because I didn't want to share what little time I had with you. I'm lost, so so lost. And I find myself feeling lonely for the first time in my life. I never knew loneliness before. You were blessed to have such a wonderful and loving family. They and your friends have been such a comfort. You may have left us all, but you are still teaching me. God's Word says, " there is a friend that sticks closer than a brother." You were that friend Danila. I'm so glad I told you how much I loved you and appreciated you. I know I said everything to you that I would have wanted to say. Thank you for giving me the BEST friendship I could have ever asked for; Your words, your sense of humor, your honesty and your hidden heart will continually walk on this earth with me. There is a hole in my heart, you probably know this, but God is replacing it with joy; joyful thoughts, magical moments and wonderful memories you left me. God says, "be still and know that I AM God." I am now broken, a place where I can be still and hear Him. I'm crawling out of that shell of comfort (since I have no place to go now that you are gone). I'm finding that there is room to grow and love more than I have before. I'm not scared of life anymore. I told you I wanted to be more like you. Remember?? Well I'm venturing out and going to live life to its fullest. Just like you did. I look forward to you greeting me when I come home to be with our Lord and Savior.

Hey Danila! I know you are there watching and listening. You're probably giving us all hell for crying and morning. Well that's how I remember you...no time for the silly-mushy stuff right! I guess the hard part for a number of us is that we never had the chance to say good bye or to tell you how much we truly loved you. Those feelings are now frozen in our hearts forever. Matteo loved you unconditionally. You were someone he looked up to. He is devastated that you are no longer with us. He just loved to be around you as we all did. You were our "cool" cousin from Houston. God has taken you for a reason and we pray that you're safe and at piece.
We love you and miss you.

Something my son Adam (12 yrs old) wrote about "Ant" Danila -
"I was at my great ant's funeral. She died reading. She was the best. She never judged anyone. She even let homelss people stay there for a night. But sadly she died Friday just 6 days ago. I saw her dead body it looked sl peaceful. Everyone cried. I also did. But the worst part is that she was my grandma's sister. And when my grandma went to see her body she was crying so hard, it made me cry to see how much she went through. I'll never get over this death in a long time. Cause we weren't just family, we were great friends. But the bright side is that I met my new 1 year old cousin Gianni - isnt he awesome!! :("
What Adam wrote is his how he viewed Danila.... Adam was Danila's "Buddy" from the day I he was born. A special connection.
Miss you Danila - more than I can say. You are all around my house in little this and you've given me and your needlepoint on my walls. Think of you every day... tears still rolling down a month later.

RIP Danila,

What I remember most about Danila was her dynamic presence and her love for and devotion to her mother. As an American daughter of Italian mother I understand the complexity of this particular kind of relationship. It is not always a smooth relationship it is on occasion ripe with conflict and drama but the love that Danila and her mother shared reverberated with each interaction.
The world is a smaller and less interesting place without you, Danila.

Danila was one of the most unique people that I have ever known. She always knew who she was, and had lots of room in her life for very diverse friends. We met while in college and working at the Medical School. I was working with her boyfriend on a project, and she checked me out to be sure that we weren't interested in each other romantically. The boyfriend went his way, but she remained my best friend for many years. My family loved her. One of my young nieces called her Vanilla Fudge. Danila became a real friend to my aunt and was a big support to her in her final illness. I have many fond memories, climbing in my second story window when I locked myself out, walking the beach and collecting shells, watching Dallas with the guys on the NASA bedrest project, playing cards and drinking coffee ‘til the early hours of the morning, big parties with unusual collections of people. Danila's passing leaves a hole in many people's lives.
November 14, 2012
I didn't get to say goodbye Danila. I am so sad!I would have to told you thank-you for sharing your french fries with me at the Princess Drive-In and ice cream at the the old Bordens in downtown Houston. I would have said thank-you for letting me have sleepovers with you even though I was ten years younger than you. When I locked myself in your bathroom and played with your make-up and you were yelling at me and calling me a pain in your rear, I new it was really a term of endearment! I loved playing model with your clothes and found it amusing that I could fit into them at 10 years old. And of course you would roll your eyes and light up a cigarette. Later when I was a young woman and worked with you at the construction company you taught me valuable lessons that I have carried with me throughout my career. You brought tears to my eyes when you would show up to surprise my parents with a visit because you brought tears to their eyes for thinking of them. I always felt part of your family and I will especially remember you with fondness. You were like a second sister. You were ever so quirky and cool and I can still see you with that hand on your hip! I am so sorry we never got to do that lunch. I would have enjoyed one last polenta with you. Give my parents big hugs and tell them I really miss them. Maybe you could give St. Frances a hand. Rest in peace my dear childhood friend.
With love,

Danila was one of my best and most reliable friends.
I miss her.
I miss the laughter we shared and her sense of humor.
I miss talking about the books we read.
I miss teasing her about hoarding.
I miss calling her up and asking her if she was sitting in the smoking section.
I miss hearing of her garage sale finds.
I miss her inquisitive nature and hearing her ask people questions most people would never ask.
I miss her ringing my doorbell and sticking her fingers through the mail slot to let me know it was her.
I miss the way she loved our pets, and would come over to take care of them at a moment's notice.
I miss the way she would come over and save me from a spider while lecturing that they were a good thing and banish it to the outdoors without killing it.
I miss her telling me about her family. She loved them all very much.
I miss her stories about growing up.
I miss serving her coffee with three heaping teaspoons of sugar and milk.
I loved her.
Danila, thank you for being my friend. You truly blessed my life.
May you Rest in Peace!

I just heard of this sad news. I haven't seen or spoken to Danila since my days at Eaves Construction many, many years ago. I always thought I'd have time to look her up... My husband and I remember her fondly each and every Christmas as we display the Christmas card she delighted us with all those years ago. Your spirit will be missed, Danila.

Danila, We spent the day together just 2 days before you passed! My sweet friend for 42 years. You were our model when I was an artist for Foleys and we went through many joys and sorrows over the years. Many rides in the little orange VW! Many meals of polenta, pasta and tomato gravy at Mama's house on California. Your mama treated me like family when I was in need of love and kindness. When I became a Catholic it was due in part to the influences of you both. You gave me unconditional love always. I know you are in Heaven with Mama and Papa. I hope to see you there one day. My love I send to Anna Maria, Nerina, Sergio and all the children. I pray for the repose of the soul of Danila,and for comfort, reassurance,blessings, faith and grace for her family. Love from Sandia.

My friendship with danila spans over 30 years. Though my family and I have moved several times in that 30 years, Danila always kept up with us, with letters, phone calls, emails. She was kind to me when I was a young girl, and when I grew up and married and had children of my own, she always remembered them with gifts and such. She seemed proud of my children's accomplishments! I will never forget Danila, and I am comforted in knowing she is now with God.

Dear friend, there are no words that can describe the years of friendship which I shared with you and your family. Your great personality. Your daily e-mails kept me updated with all of you and the beautiful cards you sent me for every occasion. The last mail you sent me was Sat. 10-11-2012 at 5.55. I love you may you rest in peace, I wil remember you in my daily prayers. Addio cara amica!
