Uncle Danny, you are already greatly missed!! I thank you for all the times you made me laugh, even when I didn’t feel like it!! I’ll never forget the time that our furnace went out and I KNOW you were super busy and you were pretty far from our house. You dropped everything and came to our rescue, because that is who you are!! I’m pretty sure you charged us less than half of your normal rate, because that is who you are! Thank you for being there when needed; for being a great uncle, for your generosity; and being so funny! I love you!! My heart goes out to my cousins Brittany, Nick and Jordan. I’m so deeply sorry for your loss!! Also, to my mom, my uncles and my aunt. Much love to all of you!
Danny was a great guy who was always there to answer a call and helped me numerous times. He really was the kind of guy who would give you the shirt off of his back. Even though he was in pain, he still had a smile on his face. He will be deeply missed and is gone way too soon.
Brittany and Nick I am so deeply sorry for your loss; your dad was a great guy. I have some very fond memories of him.
Praying for comfort and peace to all who loved him.
I was blessed to see Dan almost (lol) daily….he always had a smile, gave me big hugs and said I was loved….he brought so many laughs, many “think about” chats on the patio (and yes I did lol), sing so many good songs, always there to help, and most of all he became part of our family!
Brittany, Jordon, Nick….we are here for you!! It’s going to be a hard road to walk but you will make it….time doesn’t ease the pain (whomever said that bs!) but you will learn to live with the pain.
Dan….love you my friend! I’m going to miss your hugs and our chats on the patio!! I will continue to “think about it”!!!
I can’t say enough how much Dan was loved by everyone. One if the nicest guys I’ve ever met and he would do anything to help anyone. Had a tough go the past
few years but always had a smile. His “Think About It”, will be dearly missed along with all those chats at the bar. Godspeed, buddy. We’ll catch up soon.
What a great guy with a heart of gold. Always smiling and great to hang out with. We too, would have the think about it chats. Always there to help everyone and always had a great attitude. Will miss you greatly my friend. Gods speed, see you on the other side. My condolences to his family and all who had the pleasure to know him.
What can I say that hadn’t been said. He was always exactly as people described all his life. Over the years he NEVER changed! Without “thinking about it” he made a name for himself. People who didn’t know him weren’t quite sure about him but as time went by they soon realized he was real! I am blown away how many people loved him and how many friends he has. He will be missed by all who knew him. And if you knew him you were one of the lucky ones! Rest in peace my little brother. I love you and will miss you always!
Do not have any stories , just met a few months ago , but he was one of those beautiful souls that always make you feel good about yourself and probably never realized he was the good apple himself, greatly missed and I always have and will even more now Think about it ! R.I.P. BROTHER
I have only known Dan for over a year. But we became friends very quickly! I saw Dan a lot over the last year and a half. He was the nicest man and would do anything for anyone. He always made you think about it… lol He called me one of his three Angels along with Erin and Jaci. Our group chats would go on for hours sometimes, until he had to tell himself to stop talking 😂. Now He is our Angel and will watch over us! I miss you Dan. I hope you know how much we love you! Til we see each other again.❤️
Dan was sent to us by God . He helped us start our hvac company after his key input the company grew to last ten years we even used dans ideas to start a second one . I remember when Dan fell and broke his neck at air experts in earth city that never stopped him he will be greatly missed
I remember Dan, when he fell and broke his neck, and had to wear the halo.
I remember his kids being little and young.

His smile and laugh I’ll always remember!
