Happy Birthday in heaven my sweet and missed friend!!
We are so saddened by the loss of our friend Danielle Nicole Schprechman. Danielle grew up and resided in Akron, Ohio. Ever involved in the Jewish community, she attended Anshe Sfard Synagogue, and went to The Lippman School, which she attended for nine years. She carried her passion for musical theater through her tenure at Firestone High School, where she devoted her time to the choirs. She was a valued member of the Madrigals, and her beautiful voice and musical composition talents will always ring in our hearts.
Upon graduation from Firestone HS, Danielle attended the University of Akron, where she subsequently received her BSN. There, she was involved in Greek life and was a student of the nursing school.
Danielle's work in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit bespoke her caring, empathetic, gentle and patient self. She taught us love of family, love of place, and open-heartedness. We will miss her dearly.
Condolences can be sent to Danielle's family at EDS1011@aol.com during this difficult time.

Danielle I think of you often and what a wonderful person you were. It makes sense that you became a nurse because of your sweet nature and willingness to serve others. I will never forget your sleepover birthday party you had in grade school and just your overall kind spirit. you are missed in this world but I know you are watching over friends and family.

I think of you often Danielle, and I do miss you greatly. You brought so much joy and happiness to others in the short time that you were here on earth. But whenever there’s a loss in the NICU, I know there’s a nurse waiting to welcome them with open arms...

Tonight I lay awake, with memories of Danielle dancing on my eyelids. The way she brightened my life just by smiling at me. The way she brightened everyone's life. Words seem so inadequate to describe how much I miss and love her. The love she left in her foot prints will not be forgotten...never forgotten. I take those precious gifts and pass them on to those who need a little bit of life in their lives.

Danielle was my sister in Delta Gamma and I met her when I was the alumna House Corporation President. She was an old souI. I am just old--nearly 40 years her senior. We shared many long talks, and I considered it a privilege to have known her. She impacted all of us who knew her at Eta Chapter, and we loved her unconditionally. Our Delta Gamma motto is "Do Good", and Danielle lived that every day in her dealings with not only those who were easy to be around, but those who were a challenge. I really don't think she considered herself as special as we did. I think of the words of the great Scottish poet, Robert Burns: "O would some power the gift to give us to see ourselves as others see us." Her spirit will remain with us, and we will always be richer for having known her.

Danielle was an amazing person. From the time I started here at Akron Children's 2 years ago she was always a refreshing person to see at the beginning of a shift. I knew it would be a good night no matter what happened because I was working with her. She was so smart and caught onto everything so quickly. She was also very good at teaching the families and making them feel comfortable and confident with leaving their babies in her care. Danielle always asked about my life and was quick to lend a suggestion or a helping hand if I was ever going through something difficult. She was always putting others before herself. ACH will never be the same. I am thankful for the time that I did get to know her and I will always think of her when I go work with the NICU babies and try to make her proud. We love and miss you, Danielle <3

I didn't know Danielle very long but I can tell you that during the short period of time I worked at main campus, she was one of the firsts to make me feel welcome. She always had a smile on her face and she always had something to talk about. There was never a dull moment with her around. Whenever she floated over or picked up shifts at Summa, it was like she worked with us every day. We would carry on conversations all night. She was a part of our team and she will be forever missed. I am forever grateful I had the pleasure of meeting her, even if it was only for a short time. She taught me a great lesson to hold the ones you love the most close. We never know how much time we have on this earth and it's a shame she couldn't share that bright smile and cheer with the rest of the world. Rest in peace Danielle.

My heart is broken wide open. Danielle was and will continue to be a strong & beautiful soul. She fought hard & long & I'll never forget her sacred presence in my life. It was a blessing to have known her during her short time here. To the family, friends & others she touched, I send light, love & prayers. May we all love & honor Dani by loving ourselves & this gift of life on earth to the fullest.
Peace. Love. Namaste.

Danielle was a young nurse in the beginning of her career, loved by her co-workers and adored by our NICU families. Danielle loved being a NICU nurse and it showed on her face, her smile,in her energy and her compassion, she was so very special. Look up what makes a perfect nurse and I'm sure you'll see a picture of Danielle smiling back at you. It's a struggle to understand why God would take from us, at such a young age, a talented loving person with so much more to give this world. Danielle; a daughter, a sister, a friend, a co-worker, a nurse and now an angel, may you rest in peace. It's with so many broken hearts that the NICU prepares to say our goodbyes to a truly beautiful and beloved friend. My thoughts and prayers are with her family. May your faith bring you strength and comfort in the days, months and years to come. Danielle, I will always remember you with a smile on your face and a baby in your arms.
Love, Mary

Your huge heart and desire for helping others shines through so evidently as I read all these tributes. It was such a blessing working with you, Danielle. It wasn't too long ago that I was talking to a NICU family and they were telling me the only bad thing they could even come up with about you were that you were too nice! Which made me laugh and smile because I think we all know that's true. You were ALWAYS going above and beyond for everyone...for your co-workers, patients, and their families. You are so missed. Rest in peace sweet girl!

Danielle and I occasionally worked together in the NICU. I truly enjoyed every minute we spent together as co-workers. She had such a genuine spirit and brightened every room she walked into. Her loving and caring personality was contagious to all who had the privilege of knowing her. Even in the early stages of her nursing career she served as an excellent example of what any nurse should aspire to be...compassionate, friendly, hard-working and eager to help others. Her life had such an impact on so many people and she will be deeply missed in our NICU.

Danielle,
Words cannot express the grief and sadness I am feeling right now. You shone with a light so bright and beautiful! I am a better person for having known you. The genuine kindness and caring that you shared with everyone you came into contact with will never be forgotten by your NICU family. You hold a forever place in my heart.

I was deeply saddened by the news of her passing. I only knew her a short time in nursing school when we were in clinicals together, but it only took that much time to know what a special person she was. Very warm, bright, friendly, and genuinely caring. I am praying for her and her family and close friends during this difficult time. Danielle, be at peace. Your spirit will never be forgotten.

My deepest condolences to anybody who knew Danielle; especially her family. I consider Danielle one of my only close friends from high school. We were not in school together long, and we only saw each other occasionally after high school, but even in such a short time she made an enormous impact on me. I can't imagine she ever treated anybody with anything less than the kindness and caring that came so naturally to her. I know that there could not be one person she met who does not feel this tremendous loss. Thinking of you Danielle.

I had the privledge to call Danielle one of my good friends and coworkers. Danielle was always so sweet to us floats and treated us as we had been friends forever. I remember she was the first person that talked to me because I was a "newer" float and we were friends ever since. Danielle was one of the sweetest nicu nurses I knew that went above and beyond for each baby and family. She will be truly missed by everyone here at Akron Childrens. <3 love you Danielle

Our pain is so palpable, trying to find the right words to help to begin to heal such a devastating loss of such a wonderful young girl, Danielle's sweet and gentle self encourages and reminds me to love one another, to care about one another and to pray. The 'No Worries' brings a smile- the "I'm Jewish" a chuckle, and leads us to know more about the faith. Always cheerful, always positive, and a role model- The NICU has suffered a great loss. The babies loved her, the parents loved her, and her NICU family loved her so!

Danielle, I am so very blessed to have had you in my life. Our class was hand picked by God and each of us has left an imprint on each other. You were truly one of a kind. When I remember you I will always remember a beautiful, intelligent, genuine, kind and thoughtful friend. I was proud to call you my (classmate and work) daughter. Until we meet again! I love you, Momma

I am devastated to hear of Danielle's passing. I've known Danielle since college days between giving her advice on nursing school and being in Greek life together. Naturally I was thrilled when she became a nurse in the NICU with me. I enjoyed many conversations with her and absolutely loved working with her. She took such good care of the babies. As a practitioner I always felt relief when I knew Danielle was taking care of my patients. She was intelligent, kind, loving, and beautiful. Her passing is a huge huge loss to our NICU family. My heart is so heavy. She will be missed.

Our family will never forget your awesome smile, your gentle touch, and your undivided attention you gave our Sweet David. Thank you for everything you did for him. He came home September 19, 2014 right after we found out you were gone forever. We never got to officially thank you and I'm sure you would have been rejoicing with us that he got to go home. Until we meet again...your memory will forever be in our greatful hearts.
