Christine Danehower

We lost our love Christine Weaver Danehower. She left us for the ultimate destination, heaven. We miss her so very much. We can no longer hold her hand, we can't dance with her, we can't garden with her, we can't work with her but we can and will forever love and remember her.

Christine passed away at Baton Rouge General on October 11, 2017. Over the past two years Christine had spent many days at Baton Rouge General. The doctors, nurses, and supporting staff of the hospital have been amazing. Each are so dedicated and so very special. Christine appreciated you very much.

Christine will be laid to rest at Resthaven in Baton Rouge. Visiting hours will take place at Resthaven on Friday, October 13, 2017 from 6:00pm until 9:00pm. Visitation will resume on Saturday, October 14, 2017 from 9:00am until services at 10:00am. Burial will follow in Resthaven Gardens of Memory. Family and friends may sign the online guestbook leaving a personal note to the family at www.resthavenbatonrouge.com. In lieu of flowers please make donations to the National Pancreatic Cancer Foundation in Christine's name.
Christine leaves behind her best friend, her love and husband Joel Danehower. Her most amazing daughters Emily Claire Danehower, Mary Danehower Hancock and Joella Danehower Willette and precious grandchildren Chloe Willette, Sadie Grace Hancock and Colt Hancock will miss her very much. Christine's son-in-law Taylor Hancock, her aunt Syble Bryan, her cousins Anne, Jane, Jean, Carol and Cliff, her nieces Jessica and Erin and her sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law and numerous nieces and nephews all greatly mourn her passing. Christine is preceded in death by her father Milford Weaver and is survived by her brother Craig Weaver and her mother Jo Ann McBay Weaver.

Christine was born in New Orleans, Louisiana on September 27, 1968 and raised in Lucedale, Mississippi. She graduated from George County High School. She attended Mississippi Gulf Coast College and attained a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Engineering from Mississippi State University. Christy's work began in high school with Mississippi Power followed by her work during college as a cooperative student with Dow Chemical.

Upon graduation from Mississippi State, Christine continued her career with Dow Chemical. She remained with Dow until her passing holding both technical and management positions. Christine loved and is loved by so many at Dow and throughout the Baton Rouge and Central communities. Near the end of her short life so many were reaching out to her, please know that she was unable to answer. She loved you all so much, please know this.

Christine, Christy and Pearl are the names that we loved her by. Think upon her and whichever name you connect with hold on to it. Love as she loved, respect as she respected, and most importantly have faith as she has faith.

We should all follow her lead.
