Baby Bonnie Lynn Daniel

NASHVILLE – Bonnie Lynn Daniel, 8 months old, went home to be with the Lord on Saturday, March 31, 2018. Born in Chapel Hill, NC on July 20, 2017, she was the daughter of Joseph Fielding Daniel and Ashley Nicole Daniel. She was preceded in death by her grandmother, Bonnie Blue.
Bonnie leaves behind to cherish her memory, her parents, Joseph and Ashley Nicole Daniel of Nashville; and her sister, Olivia Grace. She is also survived by her paternal grandparents, Fielding and Amy Daniel; her maternal grandfather, Gordon Blue; an uncle, Crawford Tyler Daniel, an aunt, Haven Baker and her husband Dustin; and her cousin, Macie Baker, all of Rocky Mount.
Bonnie’s entire life was spent in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit at UNC Chapel Hill, where she had the opportunity to inspire those around her with her strength and happy positive nature that she projected. Her infectious smile would light up the room along with anyone who was in it. She was a strong and loving child who fought hard and long and was loved by many in and outside of the hospital. Even though she never came home and rarely left her room she had such a spiritual impact on so many people, most of which never knew who she was. Bonnie had people praying for her all over the world, and her family can only hope that she has led as an example of the miracles that Christ can perform and how He is in control and is a loving and just God.
