Danielle Evan Eames-Powe

She died on July 5th, 2021 in Penobscot County, Maine at the age of 36.

She is survived by her mother Shelly, her father Daniel, her big brothers Justin and Blair, her seastars Ashley, Carlie and Taylor, her life partner Bruce Raymond and their 17 year old daughter Mabel Jo-lynn Eames. Many many many family members both bio and adopted who loved her very dearly and Maggie.

Danielle very much loved her daughter Mabel, her 8 year old beagle Maggie, Bruce, her 5 siblings and her big giant family. Probably in that order.

She loved coffee, big sunglasses, animals, everything about autumn, thundershowers, cool weather. all things tiny, especially those things that you get for a quarter out of those gumball type machines. She had a million of them.

She loved art projects, creative writing, decorating her space and always took great care in her appearance. She was so beautiful.

She loved the country, nature, trees, leaves, rocks, brooks and walking Maggie in the woods.

She loved music, singing when she thought no one was listening, double meanings, lyrics and just words in general. She often used song lyrics to express herself and was an incredible writer. She was brilliant.

She and Mabes loved doing photo shoots, painting rocks and hiding them throughout Bangor, and their special mother-daughter times that were always filled with fun and giggles.

Danielle had the sweetest, most precious Mona Lisa smile, and she was ten times the mystery. Her voice was always so soft, gentle and soothing. Like a hug. But oh her eyes, how they sparkled and danced. And you knew there was a world of mischief going on in there.

And her giggle. It was sweet, innocent and playful and it let you see that there was a brook of joy within her that could not help but bubble to the surface.

And then there was her unseen war. A violent storm that raged within her for 20 years and sometimes took her under. We could not reach her. She could not see us. And when it finished with her, she was left with the aftermath. She was brave. She was strong. She was perfect.

No more storms baby girl.

Rest now.

And know that we love you forever

My precious Danni Doo

There will be no formal services. We the big giant family will gather in small groups often and remember her through stories and our great love for her and each other. We hope you are able to do the same.

In lieu of flowers, please hug the people that matter to you and tell them how much you love them. We wish you peace and love.
