McNeill-Legacy Funeral HomeDaniela Amber Gugliotta
July 20, 1980 – August 27, 2025
Daniela Amber Gugliotta, born Daniela Amber Linan on July 20, 1980, in Trieste, Italy, entered eternal rest on August 27, 2025. She was the beloved daughter of Samuel Gugliotta and Shari Ann Linan.
At the age of 9, Daniela was adopted and lovingly became Daniela Amber Gugliotta. She is survived by her devoted husband, John Adams, and her cherished sons, Jonathan and Emery. She also leaves behind her brother Vinny Gugliotta, his wife Jennifer, and their son Vinny Jr., as well as her brother Adam Contreras and her grandparents, Doug and Gloria Williams.
Daniela was a faithful member of Manna Church, where she was saved and baptized. Her unwavering commitment to Jesus Christ was the cornerstone of her life. She lived to serve others and gave of herself sacrificially—always with a heart full of love.
She devoted her time to helping the homeless through the Dream Center and the Manna Community Store. Daniela never passed a homeless person without offering something—whether it was food, money, or simply a kind word. Her generosity was as natural as her smile.
Daniela was known for growing and gifting plants to friends and members of her church, a small but meaningful way she spread beauty and love. Her three dogs—Chub Chub, Little One, and Roxy—were her constant companions and brought her immeasurable joy.
Those who knew Daniela will remember her as the most loving, selfless person—someone who truly changed the lives of everyone she met.
A Memorygram will be created and placed at her gravesite, featuring photos, videos, and treasured memories of her beautiful life.
In lieu of flowers or gifts, donations may be made in Daniela’s honor to St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital or a local orphanage—causes that were dear to her heart.
