Life Celebration
Eddie Danielson
It was a cloudy day when you went away, the cancer we so bravely
fought stole your life away.
On April 4, 2012 Edward Danielson passed away after a long and
courageous battle. Eddie was a loving brother to Jonathan and Glen
D anielson and M ichael
Demartine, and a loving son
and best friend to his
m o th e r
G eo rg in a
Danielson.
He left behind many fam­
ily members and friends to
carry on his memory. He
was an avid skateboarder,
who loved his family and
friends.
Join us in celebrating
Eddie’s life on May 27,2012 at 1 p.m .at the University Park Seventh Day
Adventist Church, 4007 N. Alaska St. A potluck will follow.
Also, you can help us find a cure for Pontine Glioma Brainstem cancer,
so no other family will have to go through what our family did. Help us keep
Eddie’s memory alive.
We will miss your smile and your laughter. You will always be our little
Eddie forever. Heaven got another angel the day you went away, and not
a day goes by that we don't miss you. Just because you needed to leave
doesn't mean we were ready to let you go.
Loving you now and forever, love momma.
