Lenore “ Lee” Frances Danyow, age 79 of Vergennes, passed away peacefully on September 30, 2023 surrounded by family. Born in Providence, RI, Lee grew up in Phoenix, AZ where she met the love of her life and husband, Jack Danyow (deceased 2022) while working for the Motorola Corporation. They later moved to Vermont to settle and raise their family.
Lee was a carefree and whimsical person who was always in search of the next adventure. She loved being at the center of the chaos and excitement of her large family, reading, spending time with friends, traveling, pets, and being in the sun. She had a special soft spot for cats and dogs and would never turn away one in need of a home.
Lee was a long time member of the Community Lutheran Church in South Burlington and enjoyed her weekly scrabble games with her girlfriends.
Lee was predeceased by her parents, John DiChristofaro and Lenore Kearney, and her son, Michael Todd Hamby. She is survived by her many children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren and several pets.
