Daniel Ben Jennings died October 11th, 2016 at home in West Bloomfield, MI.

His passing was an incredible shock to family and friends here and around the world. Daniel’s family is shattered at this tragic and sudden loss.

Daniel had been spending most of his time this past summer and fall working on his art portfolio and was very enthusiastic about the prospect of going to College for Creative Studies.

He was so dedicated to creating art whether it was drawing, painting, sculpture, writing stories and lyrics. He found inspiration everywhere and it poured out of him, it was an unstoppable force. He always had something new to share.

Daniel was incredibly charming and his smile and wit could light up a whole room. He found so much joy in making others laugh.

He always spoke so fondly of everyone who had been a part of his life, even those he didn’t remain in touch with.

Everyone who was blessed to have known Daniel now feels the impact of his absence. He was such a fierce creative talent and his future contributions to this world will be terribly missed.

Daniel is survived by his devoted mother and father, Marlene and Peter Jennings, his loving brother and sister, Shane and Natalie Jennings. As well as so many of his extended family across the world. Many of whom Daniel was able to spend time with last summer in England. He will be missed by so many friends and family, near and far, in the United States, England, South Africa, New Zealand, and Ireland.
