Wanda Jane Daniels

Wanda Jane Daniels, age 70, passed away peacefully in her home in Trenton GA on Thursday, December 9, 2021 surrounded by her family. Wanda, Tiny, NaNa, Moma, Sister. These are some of the names that her family and friends knew her by in her life. Wanda was a hard worker from early years of hauling produce to helping her husband tend the crop fields. She loved to cook for her family and at one point in her life she owned a small restaurant in Hammondville that she was successful at for some time. She felt strongly that spending time with her grandbabies was more precious than her dream of owning her own business and decided to give it up and to make memories in the kitchen with her family. Her grandchildren often share stories of “baking” with NaNa when they visited and talk about how unforgettable those moments were for them and how many attempts it took to get the recipe just right for the no bake cookies. Wanda loved spending time with each of her 4 children so much that she made time to do things with them that they enjoyed doing whatever that may be. Her adventurous spirit led her to try new things and pick up new hobbies in order for her to spend time with her kids and grandkids. To her, the sky was the limit and there wasn't anything that she was afraid to try as long as she was in the presence of her family. Mrs. Daniels loved her Bible and she enjoyed going to church with her kids and grandkids when she was able and could often be found surrounded by people that needed the comfort and wisdom that she was able to give to them in their time of need. Wanda was preceded in death by Donnie “Biscuit” Daniels, her father-Melvin Porter, her Mother-Nellie Porter, brothers- J.D, Wendell, Therman(Cotton), and Leon Porter, and sisters- Linda Faye Porter and Evelyn Tishaw. Her Survivors are Sisters- Arthell Johnson and Teresa Young, sons Donald (Sonya) Daniels, Mitchell Daniels, Harold (Stacie) Daniels and daughter- Christy Ellis. Numerous nieces, nephews, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. Funeral services will be held Monday, December 13th at 1:00 p.m. in the funeral home chapel with Rev. Billy Joe Conner officiating. Interment will follow in Trenton Baptist Cemetery. Online condolences may be shared at ryanfuneralhome.net. The family will receive friends on Sunday, December 11th from 3:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. and on Monday from 11:00 a.m. until the funeral hour at Ryan Funeral Home & Crematory, Trenton, GA.
