Danielle Nicole Moreno
Danielle Nicole Moreno, age17 was tragically taken from this earth August 1, 2005 to be with her Lord and Savior. Danielle will be greatly missed by all those she touched; who loved and cherished her. She had an infectious smile, and when entering a room could change the atmosphere no matter how sad or down people were. A phrase left at the memorial describes her: She lived the life she loved and loved the life she lived. Danielle was born March 7, 1988 in Vancouver, Washington. We were blessed with Danielle through New Hope Adoption Agency, when she was one day old. An answer to prayer and a bundle of joy who grew to an amazing young lady. Danielle had many talents: music, playing basketball, softball and creative writing. She was blessed with a beautiful voice and played piano at a young age. Most recently she was involved with the South Ridge High School Chamber Choir. She so loved all her friends their and especially her instructor Debie Eng. Danielle was proceded in death by her most cherished grandfather J.J. Red Moreno, aunts Debbie Walkenhauer and Kathryn Mildfelt. She is survived by her father Lorenzo Loren Moreno, grandmother Irene Moreno, special uncle and aunt John and Marcia Moreno, grandmother Arlene Owen, grandfather Wayne Kelley, uncles Richard Dick Mildfelt and Fred Mildfelt, uncle and aunt Don and Tammy Walkenhauer, step-grandmother Verna Brown and numerous cousins. A celebration of Danielles life will be held 10:00 AM Saturday, August 13, 2005 at Kennewick First Baptist Church 3700 W. 27th Ave. Memorial donations can be made in Danielles name at Key Bank in Richland and Kennewick WA
I was thinking of a time in high-school in 2005 , in history class I was having so much fun learning history and seeing Danielle in that class she was getting frustrated about history and how challenging it was, but I would help her out or give her hints to things to help her figure things out on her own as she would. She would end up passing that class. She was smart and fun to be around. Always an honor to have had that moment in class with her. She will never be forgotten. I didn’t know her well, but I had that moment in that class with her. It is true that smile was infectious and if she lit up a room with it. It was truly hers. Thank you Danielle.
Wow, I am so sad to be signing this…Danielle had a beautiful soul. You were so right when you said in the obit that she brightened a room as soon as she walked in. I work at Southridge and met Danielle in my first weeks there. I assist some of the more disabled students, and Danielle walked into Foods and Nutrition every day with a huge hello and hug for Abby every day – it made Abby’s day. I used to have to help Abby to let go of Danielle, she was so happy to be around her!
I remember last Christmas at the concert the choir singing Blackbird a cappella, and Danielle whistling during one part of it. I heard it again at the Spring concert and both times I just jumped up and clapped – the only time ever I was so moved by a high school piece.
Danielle was such a special person and will be greatly missed. I pray for her family still here, and thank God that her mother is with her to comfort her because her transition was too early – I’m sure that Linda is keeping her safe and secure and warm in heaven.
I’m so sorry I can’t make it to the funeral. I’ll pray for all of her family and friends. What a sad, sad day last Monday was. What a great loss for the Tri-Cities community.
To my dear little friend Danielle; You became like a second daughter to me, you and Shay were “buds” in school,we smile when we hear the word “neener”…God Bless you, you are missed.
Hey Danielle, I love ya! I’ll never forget what you did ever time you seen me you would say “Hey Linda Fraley”
I can hear you saying that today. Your memories will be with me forever. You are now in a better place sing your heart out for you have a beautiful voice. And I want to hear you when I come and join you.

I Miss you more then ever right now… I just wish that you could be back here, as selfish as that sounds. I want you back. The days in school just seem to drag on endlessly without you…Without you singing on your way from Choir, and the sound of your voice echoing down the halls. Everytime I walk in to that school all I can do is think about you. But now all i can do is think about all the good times, and remember how you helped me so much.
I Love You.
