Danielle J. Thebeault, 50, of Gardner, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, October 4, 2026.

Danielle was born in Gardner on June 16, 1976, the daughter of the late Ronald S. O'Hearn and Kathleen M. Thebeault. She was employed by Busy Hands Tissue Paper, where she worked folding and packaging products.

Danielle enjoyed playing bingo in Jaffrey, baking, taking walks, and spending time sitting at her mom's grave. She also enjoyed trying her luck with scratch tickets. She had her daily routine of stopping at Cumberland Farms in Gardner every morning to get herself an iced coffee. More than anything, Danielle loved spending time with her family. She especially treasured caring for and spending time with her children and grandchildren, who brought tremendous happiness to her life. Whether it was a simple visit, sharing a laugh, or just being together, Danielle cherished the time she had with those she loved most.

Danielle is survived by her son, Damian Thebeault of Gardner; four daughters, Kaylee Thebeault and her fiancée, Francis Gauthier of Gardner, Misty Thebeault of Gardner, Ashley Girouard and her husband, Kendrick of Gardner, and Cheyanne Thebeault of Gardner; six grandchildren, Maliah Clements, Gracelynn Gauthier, Oliver Girouard, Braxton Gauthier, Remington Yakusik, and Brayden Gauthier. She also leaves behind several bonus grandbabies whom she loved and cherished as her own.

Danielle also leaves behind her adopted daughter, Destiney Gauthier, and her children, Lilian Fontaine and Jarret Schaaf Jr., whom she welcomed into her heart and loved just like her own.

She is also survived by two brothers, Dean Gibbs of Canada and Daniel O'Hearn of California; two sisters, Beckey Thibault and her husband, Shane of Templeton, and Jessica McCoy and her husband, Javinne of Gardner; and several nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, and uncles, including Jazlyn Doss, Jaziah McCoy, Janessa McCoy, and Bianca Cutler.

Danielle also leaves behind her best friend, Frank Harvey; her best friend and partner in crime, Leeann Gauthier; her adopted sister, Bonnie Cutler; and Johnny Flagg, all of Gardner.

Besides her parents, she was predeceased by her brother, Shane O'Hearn.
