Dani Jimenez Obituary

Dani Marie Jimenez

November 18th, 2024

Dani Marie Jimenez, 32, of Vernon, CT, and formerly Lompoc, CA, beloved daughter of Daniel and Kathleen (Montoya) Jimenez, passed away at St. Francis Hospital on Monday, November 18th, 2024, surrounded by her loving family.

Dani Marie was a bright light in the lives of all who knew her, radiating warmth with her great smile and a personality larger than life.

Her greatest passion was working with small children as a dedicated preschool teacher. She had a natural gift for nurturing young minds, and the children in her care adored her. Dani's love and enthusiasm created a joyful and supportive environment.

She had a boundless love for her family and a deep devotion to those she cared about. Her nephews and nieces were her world, and she cherished every opportunity to be part of their lives, whether cheering them on at sports events or attending their school functions. Her support and love were constants in their lives.

Three years ago, Dani moved across the country to start a new chapter with her fiancé, Dana Perzanowski.

Embracing the beauty of her new surroundings, she delighted in the changing seasons, the vibrant fall foliage, and her first experiences with snow.

Summers were spent camping and enjoying the lakes. She treasured the annual Christmas trips to Vermont, family dinners, and bonding over sports.

Her life was filled with love and connection, and her impact will be felt forever.

Dani Marie will be deeply missed and fondly remembered for the love, joy, and light she brought to the world.

She leaves behind her parents Daniel and Kathleen, sisters Alicia Pischke and Melissa Renfrow, paternal grandparents Daniel & Vera Jimenez, and her loving fiancé Dana Perzanowski.

She is also survived by her nephews, Steven Hubert, Jaxson Pischke, and Hunter Pischke; her nieces, Ellie Hubert and Maliyah Renfrow; as well as numerous aunts, uncles, cousins & close family friends. She was preceded in death by her maternal grandparents Alfred & Petra Montoya.

Servies will be held Saturday Jan. 4th 1:00 pm at La Purisima Church, 213 W Olive Ave. Lompoc, CA
