Had lots of fond memories
Danny was a great cousin. We share many memories while visiting our parents, during hunting, and other family gatherings. We kept in contact throught the years. He will be greatly missed. Condolences to all of his family.
Danny had the courage of a lion, the soft heart of a teddy bear, and the voice of an angel. I will cherish all of the memories we share with our very close families as we grew throughout childhood and into adulthood. He died far too young.
