Danielle C. Silsbee, 78, of Lower Macungie Township, died Feb. 13, 2020, after a courageous battle against leukemia. She was the wife of Lynald E. Silsbee. Born in Pottstown, she was the daughter of the late Daniel J. and Marie (Dunn) Conner.

She was a graduate of Owen J. Roberts High School, Class of 1959.

She was a facilities administrator at Lockheed Martin for many years, receiving the corporation Prestige Award for her superior performance and organizational skills. After retiring in 2001, she channeled her entrepreneurial spirit and creative talent into her own successful business, Conner Concepts, a kitchen design company.

She had a passion for art and became a very talented artist who painted a variety of subjects using both watercolors and oils. Her home was impressively decorated with her beautiful artwork.

She loved to travel with her husband. Her most intense love, however, was her love of people. The center of her universe was, without a doubt, her family.

In addition to her husband, she is survived by a son, Ryan McGough and his wife Tracy, of Douglasville; stepson, Brian and his wife, Teresa of Bedford, Va.; stepson, Jeff, of Orefield; grandchildren Conner, Cassidy, Callie and Emme; sister, Debbie and her husband, John Anthony; brother, Patrick, of Delaware; sister-in-law Kate Conner (wife of brother Dennis, who predeceased Danielle.)

Contributions may be made to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, 1525 Valley Center Parkway, Suite 180, Bethlehem, 18017.
