DeVries, Danielle Arlene (nee Mussche) – On Tuesday, August 21, 2018, at the age of 40, our beloved Danielle entered into glory.  She died peacefully, surrounded by her loved ones, after a courageous battle with colon cancer.  Although we are broken-hearted to say good-bye, we know one day we will meet again because of the sure promises given by our Heavenly Father.

Beloved wife of Timothy for 5 years, and loving mother of Martha and Ava.  Cherished daughter of Henry and Arlene Mussche, and daughter-in-law of John and Jantina DeVries.  Dear sister to Rachel & Michael Vander Deen (Peter, Aaron, Nathaniel, Stephen) and Lauren & Tom Schotsman (Benjamin, William, Sadie, Ruth), and sister-in-law to Mark, Rochelle & Darryl Exelby (Alannah, Ian, Camille, Lia), and Angela & Josh Duger (Milo). Danielle was loved and will be dearly missed by many aunts, uncles, cousins, friends, and colleagues.

Special thanks to the many wonderful doctors, nurses, and staff involved in her care at St. Joseph's, Juravinski, McMaster, Sunnybrook, and Bob Kemp Hospice for their excellent and compassionate care.  We are so grateful for the unwavering love and support shown in various ways from so many over the course of this difficult journey.  

Visitation will be held at the Rehoboth United Reformed Church at 77 Glancaster Rd in Hamilton from 1:00-3:00 pm and 6:00-9:00 pm on Friday, August 24.  Following a private family interment at Carluke White Church Cemetery, a memorial service will be held on Saturday, August 25 at 11:00 am at Rehoboth United Reformed Church, with a standing luncheon to follow.  In lieu of flowers, donations to the Dr. Bob Kemp Hospice in Hamilton would be greatly appreciated.
