Danna was born January 2, 1971 in Arlington, Texas to Danny and Betty (Driver) Bosley.  She graduated from Mexia High School, Class of 1990.  Danna had a 33-year career with Mexia ISD, a job she truly loved and took very seriously.  She will be fondly remembered by the many children whose lives she touched during those 33 years.  

Danna loved, and was faithful, to her family and church; Jesus was number 1 in her life.  The happiness and joy in Danna’s life was her daughter, Skylar; she was her world.  Danna was always very supportive of Skylar’s love for music, sporting events, and anything else in which she was involved.  Danna’s mother, Betty, was her role model, best friend, and biggest supporter throughout her life.  Danna learned from the best and the blessing of that same loving relationship was shared with her daughter, Skylar.

Danna was a member of the First Baptist Church of Wortham.  Of all the church activities, her favorite activity was participating in Bible study with the Senior Sisters.

She was preceded in death by her mother, Betty Bosley.

Danna is survived by her loving daughter, Skylar Paige Phillips; father, Danny Bosley; brother, Jim Bosley and wife, Melissa; nephew, Chase Bosley and wife, Ashley; niece, Callan Bosley; great niece, Logan Betty Bosley; her special little dog, Belle; and other relatives.  

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the First Baptist Church of Wortham, P. O. Box 426, Wortham, TX 76693.
