Elizabeth Margaret "Liz" Danner

Elizabeth "Liz" Margaret Danner, age 68, of Chardon, Ohio, passed away peacefully at home on May 12, 2025, surrounded by the love and comfort of her family. Liz was born on December 20, 1956, in Canfield, Ohio, to James and Madeline (née Bosworth) Olney.
Liz earned a BA degree from Youngstown State University. In November of 1981, she married Mark Danner, and together they built a life filled with love, laughter, and devotion. Throughout their years together, they lived in many different places and made friends easily wherever they went-thanks to Liz's warm smile, welcoming spirit, and genuine kindness.
She was a devoted and loving mother, raising three sons with heart, strength, and unwavering support. Liz was an active presence in their lives and schools, always involved, always cheering them on, and always leading with love. Her dedication to her family was the foundation of everything she did.
Liz loved to spend time outdoors. She was an avid golfer and a longtime member of the Women's League at Chardon Lakes, where she found both joy in the game and lasting friendships. Her love of flowers was evident in the beautiful gardens she nurtured with care and attention. Whether it was time spent with her family, a peaceful morning in the garden, or a sunny afternoon on the golf course, Liz found joy in life's simple pleasures.
Her greatest joy, though, was her family. She was the heart of every gathering, and her presence brought comfort and warmth to all who knew her. She adored her grandchildren and treasured every moment she spent with them.
Liz is survived by her beloved husband, Mark Danner of Chardon, Ohio; her sons, Chris (Jen) Danner of DeForest, WI, James (Laura) Danner of Loveland, OH, and Ian (Danielle) Danner of Buffalo, NY; and her adored grandchildren, Hudson, Bode, Nathan, Bailey, Amelia, and Andrian. She is also survived by her brother, David Olney. She was preceded in death by her parents, James and Madeline Olney.
Family and friends are invited to celebrate Liz's life on Friday, May 23, 2025, with visitation from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m., followed by a Memorial Service at 5:00 p.m. at Burr Funeral Home and Cremation Service, 116 South Street, Chardon, Ohio 44024..
Liz will be remembered for her loving heart, her gentle nature, and the grace with which she lived her life. She leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and the many lives she touched along the way.
