I have many fond memories of you Daniel kids while growing up on Fourth Street. Those were the "good ole days". Jo Ann and Walter were the salt of the earth and I miss them both.

Lois and I were so sorry to hear of Jo Ann’s passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. God’s word says death is an enemy, and it certainly is. Reading Rev. 21:3, 4 and John 5:25 have always brought us comfort, and hopefully will do the same for you.
Debbie, Danny, and Joe. I am saddened to learn of the passing of your mother. She was a special person in my life and I will always remember the times that we shared in Earle. Her tuna salad with dill pickles was the best!! Enjoyed that many times on Sunday evening after church, She was quite a character, and I mean that in a good way. My condolences to your family.
Debbie,
I’m so sorry to learn of your mother’s passing, but I’m so glad you had her in your life for such a long time. I’ll never forget how welcome she made feel the first time I met her in Earle, and I thought the world of your Aunt Uvee. She and Mrs. McCain were the best of friends,
I pray for peace and comfort for you at this time and in the days to come. God be with you and your family.
