Danie L. McMillen

With sad hearts we announce Danie’s passing with family by his side on Friday, Jan. 12, 2018. He had fought a courageous battle with cancer for 2 years.

Born Feb. 10, 1958, he is the son of Loretta J. (Obst) Gawblick, of Muncy and the late William McMillen. On Dec. 23, 1994, he married his wife Curta (Confer) McMillen and celebrated their 23rd wedding anniversary this past December.

Due to his illness, Danie had to retire early but prior to that he was a welder by trade with his brother Tim by his side. Both being welders, outside of work they made beautiful yard art together, many of which are displayed in family yards. He enjoyed riding Harley Davidson motorcycles and 4 Wheelers, going to flea markets and yard sales. But, mostly Danie enjoyed and loved dearly his family and four-legged children, Max, Dude, and Journey.

Surviving in addition to his wife and mother, is a son, Thomas E. DelJanovan, of Huntingdon; four sisters: Carol (Dave) Pittinger, of Montoursville, Stephanie Sisley, of Ohio, Donna (Dave) Mowery, of Montoursville, Diane (Dave) Ellerman, of Wisconsin; two brothers, Tim (Debbie) McMillen, of Muncy, Robert (Judy) McMillen, of Florida; special nieces, Jennifer, Beth, Melissa, Charlotte, and Natasha; special nephews, Jason, Jeremy, and John; his mother-in-law, Donna Confer; 2 brothers-in-law, Frank Confer and Robert (Chris) Confer; and numerous cousins, great nieces and nephews.

In addition to his father, he was preceded in death by two sons, Joshua James McMillen and Danie L. McMillen Jr.; a daughter, Nichole; a sister, Karen McMillen; and his father-in-law, Robert Confer.

In keeping with Danie’s wishes, a private gathering will be held at the convenience of the family. Burial will be in Twin Hills Memorial Park, Muncy.

Arrangements are entrusted to McCarty-Thomas Funeral Home, Hughesville.
