Celebrating the Life of Daniel Todd Denien

Daniel Todd Denien, who brought joy and love to all who knew him, was born on September 19, 1979, in Beech Grove, Indiana. Daniel passed away, leaving behind a legacy of warmth and devotion as a loving family man. His life in Indianapolis, Indiana, with his beloved wife Kristy Brown Denien and their daughters, Lilly, Hannah, and Renee, was filled with moments that cherished the simple pleasures of life and family.

Daniel was not only an amazing husband, a loving father, and a wonderful son, but also a skilled mechanic who worked at his family’s business, Limestone Garage. His love and passion for Limestone Garage started as a young boy and carried on throughout his life. Limestone was not just a place of work, but more of a home and part of his soul. His contributions at work were invaluable as was his presence at home, where his love and laughter filled the hearts of those around him.

He will be lovingly remembered by his wife Kristy, and his children, Lilly, Hannah, and Renee Denien. He also leaves behind his parents John and Teresa Denien, brother Michael (Donna) Denien, nephew Austin Denien, and nieces Isabella Denien, Abby Denien, and Jalee Brown who will miss his guidance and care.

Daniel was a compassionate man that loved to make people happy and smile. His devotion of true love and pure kindness cannot be matched. He was devoted to his family and friends and would help others without hesitation. He loved to take family vacations, work out in his barn, and set off massive amounts of fireworks. As we reflect on his life, we are reminded of the impact one individual can have through simple acts of love and dedication. Daniel’s memory will forever inspire us to cherish our loved ones with the same unconditional love he displayed every day.
