Danita Beth Howe passed away on April 13, 2022 at the age of 58 after a brave battle with cancer, surrounded by loved ones who will continue to honor her legacy by living their lives to the fullest.

She graduated from Elk Mound High School, class of 1981 and pursued an Associate Degree in Marketing at Chippewa Valley Technical College.

Dani loved her “kitty’s” Veronica, Georgia, and Sassy.  Preceded in death by her father, grandparents, and other relatives.

Danita never liked goodbyes, and always preferred to sneak away without anyone knowing. It only made sense for her to sneak away one last time, when she left us for heaven.

“In the end, nothing we do or say in this lifetime will matter as much as the way we have loved one another.”

A special thanks to Mayo Hospice who provided wonderful care and comfort at the Farm in Colfax, WI before her passing.  

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, April 23, 2022, at the VFW Post 7232, 2900 West Folsom Street, Eau Claire, WI 54703 from 2-6pm.
