Eglantine Louise Daniel

Heaven announced the arrival of Mrs. Eglantine Louise Daniel into the eternal presence of God. She peacefully departed her earthly place on Sunday, September 24, 2023 in Conyers, Georgia. Eglantine Daniel was born to the late Joseph Pennyfeather and Rebecca Mullix on August 12, 1941 in Sandy Point, St. Kitts, West Indies. She attended trade school to become a professional dressmaker. She married her sweetheart, Robert Daniel on February 15, 1961. Out of this union they had four children (Franz, Halenz, Loweven, and Haydee). Their love spanned over 62 years. Her husband Robert said, “He loved her for keeps!” Eglantine dedicated her life to Christ through the Seventh-day Adventist Church and its various outreach programs. She wholeheartedly supported the mission of the Seventh-day Adventist Church by being an avid monthly supporter of the Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA), Three Angels Broadcasting Network (3ABN), Voice of Prophecy, and so many more local organizations. Eglantine joined and was devoted to her church, City Seventh-Day Adventist Church in St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. She served in many capacities, nurturing and supporting the church and its members through evangelism, and community services. She served as Prayer Coordinator for over 10 years, Adventurers Club Counselor, Cook, and Supporter for over 20 years, Craft Instructor for the Pathfinder Club for over 10 years and Sabbath School Teacher for over 20 years. She also worked in Lay Activities (now recognized as Personal Ministries and Community Services). She often reflected on her favorite verse…. As a professional Colporteur Evangelist, who worked for the North Caribbean Conference of Seventh-day Adventist, many people were drawn to Christ as she canvassed from door to door. In addition, she opened her home to young professionals, who were involved in preparing for the ministry through summer colporteuring. She also opened her home to family, friends, and visitors to enjoy the beautiful scenery from her front porch. Eglantine was an avid seamstress, loved nurturing her flowers and spending time in her vegetable garden, and hand washing. She was famous for her lentil soup and roast, her fungi and fish, saltfish cakes and patties, johnnycake, bread, carrot cake, and tarts. She cooked faithfully every Sunday for the homeless. She unselfishly shared food with family and friends. Eglantine was preceded in death by her son, Halenz Daniel. Eglantine leaves to cherish her memories her loving and devoted husband of 62 years, Robert Daniel; children Franz and Loweven Daniel, and Haydee Knight and her son-in-love, Knudsen Knight. Her grandchildren: Leslie, Loweven, and Jeilani Daniel, Kenadee and Madison Knight, and great-grand child, Aiden Daniel. Her siblings Edmund Mullix, Hugo Mullix, Verna Huggins, Yvonne Selina Pennyfeather-Landefort. Her siblings that predeceased her are as follows: Rose Richardson, James Pennyfeather, Normon Pennyfeather, Murial Pennyfeather, Beulah Soldiew, Agnes Rollins, Violet Hodge, Emile Pennyfeather, Charles Pennyfeather, and Joseph Pennyfeather. She also leaves to mourn her loss a host of nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends that she held near and dear to her heart. Services entrusted to Gregory B.
