MILNER, DANIELLE M. of Clarkston, passed away unexpectedly on May 27, 2025 at 57 years of age. Loving and exceptional wife of Robert Milner for 30 years for whom she was his everything; cherished mother of Rileigh, Megan, and Amanda Milner; beloved daughter of Robert and Deanna York, and David Regner; sister of James (Stephanie) Regner, Chris (Beth) Regner, and Michael (Aimee) York; aunt of many nieces and nephews. Danielle was a 1986 graduate of Waterford Kettering High School. After graduation she attended Oakland Community College in early childhood development where she learned many skills that she would put to use raising her daughters. Danielle also worked several years at Peppi's in Waterford. The manager could no longer promote her so he married her, and Danielle and Robert would raise three wonderful daughters. Once the girls were grown, Danielle and Robert decided to get back into the restaurant business and opened Square One in Waterford with their daughter Megan. Danielle was a creative, talented, intuitive person that gave much of herself to everyone. A mom to everyone; giving of her time; and caring for others was her hallmark. Danielle will always be loved and remembered as a wonderful daughter, wife, and mother. A memorial visitation will be held Sunday, June 1, 2025 from 4-8 PM at COATS FUNERAL HOME-WATERFORD.

So sorry for your loss. Was doing some demolition on a house and found this on the floor underneath flooring. Did a Google search and this came up? Thought you may like these photos.
