  2. Q: What was one of your favorite qualities of Daniel?

    A: I delivered Meals On Wheels to Daniel and I was impressed to see his cheerful attitude when I arrived. He always thanked me and let me know know how much he appreciated all I did for him. We talked about his faith and I know he is in a better place now.

  5. Danny always thought he was so funny because we were so close in age and in the same grade so he told everyone we were twins and no one ever questioned it! I miss you big brother. Rest peacefully with Jesus. Always in my heart. Love your twin sister Cathy.

  7. Uncle Danny I wish you could have met my children and we could have spent some time together. You had a great taste in music and I loved every time you shared a Lana Del Rey or Sia song with me. Rest in Peace Love Jess
