What a great man. We always said we were distant...distant cousins. He was always smiling when he came in at Fiser. He will be missed in so many ways. He would tell me about his fishing trips and tell me it was too bad I had to be working. He seemed to enjoy life. He made everyone around him smile. Good memories. Prayers to the family during this hard time. May God bless and comfort you.
I was a couple years younger than Danny, but rode a motorcycle right along side of him on a few occasions.. I had not seen Danny since 1957-58 but I've thought about him often, nearly every time I talk motorcycles or hop on mine for a ride.. Our prayers are with the family.. Danny was a cutup and will be missed by his family and many friends..
Danny and I have been friends as long as i can remember.
We stayed in touch all these years and and his Email messages will be missed. Carol and I would like to offer our condolences to Danny's family. We know his departure will leave a big hole in their lives. I'm truly sorry that I will not be able to attend the service.
My prayers for all the family. I worked with Danny [8 1/4] many years at ABF mighty fine fellow. HE will be missed but will still be in the heart of MANY friends and family. God Bless you all in this time.
