Elaine Aeschbacher Daniels, 80, of Twin Falls, Idaho, formerly of Blackfoot, passed away Wednesday, Oct. 1, 2014, at St. Luke's Magic Valley from natural causes.
She was born Aug. 29, 1934, in Archer, Idaho, to Ernest Aeschbacher and Ruby Jane Niederer Aeschbacher.
She graduated from Madison High School in Rexburg in 1952. After which, she and her best friend moved to Idaho Falls, where she started her first job at Mountain Bell as a telephone switchboard operator.
In 1953, Elaine went with her friends to a dance in Ririe and met the love of her life, Delwin C. "Dan" Daniels. Six months later, they were married in the Idaho Falls LDS Temple on January 20, 1954. 11 and a half months later, their first child, Perry Delwin, was born Dec. 17, 1954. It took almost 11 years before another child was added to their family. In 1965, they adopted Sherry Elaine, who was born Nov. 13. They decided to adopt another daughter, Tanya, who was born Aug. 19, 1967, thus completing their family.
Elaine was in the grocery store business along with her husband from 1960, until they retired when they closed their store, Dan's Mighty Market, in 1992.
She enjoyed a number of hobbies and activities through the years: ceramics, gardening, huckleberry and choke cherry picking, canning, making jam, floral arranging and shopping. She loved camping, snowmobiling, boating and fishing. She also enjoyed their cabins in Palisades and in Island Park as well as the time-share condo in Orlando, Fla. She loved the many travel adventures across the United States and Canada, be it road trips in the car, cross country in the truck and camper, in the motor home or flying somewhere.
Elaine really enjoyed going to church as well as participating in Relief Society meetings, events, projects and as a visiting teacher.
As a mother and a grandmother, she truly enjoyed all of the big family gatherings for birthdays, holidays and family reunions.
Elaine is survived by her son, Perry (AnnDee) Daniels of Twin Falls; daughters, Sherry (Shaun) O'Connor of Blackfoot and Tanya (Eric) Stufflebeam of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho; grandchildren, Carlee (Greg) Lutz, Korri (Ben) Browne, Anton Hale, Casey Roberts, Megan Roberts (J.J. Bates) and Mikhayla Hendricks; step-grandchildren, Nicole Stufflebeam and Cody Stufflebeam; great-grandchildren, Jakeb Lutz, Cameryn Hale and Dominic Bates; step-great-grandchildren, Jessica Lutz, Darien Lutz and Mckaylan Bates; and numerous extended family members.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Delwin C. "Dan" Daniels; her parents, Ernest and Ruby Jane Aeschbacher; five brothers, Grant, Lyle, Leon, Don and LeRoy Aeschbacher; and one sister, Joyce Chase.
Our family would like to sincerely thank the ICU medical and nursing staff at St. Luke's for your kind and professional care of our mother/grandmother. We would also like to thank her good friends, George and Lou Shepherd, as well as the kind gentlemen from the church who helped bless her numerous times during her stay at the hospital.
Funeral services will be held at 1 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 11, at the LDS 17th Ward, 2680 Elizabeth Blvd in Twin Falls. Visitation will be from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Friday at the Parke's Magic Valley Funeral Home, 2551 Kimberly Road in Twin Falls, and from noon to 1 p.m. Saturday prior to the services at the church.
