Glad your not hurting anymore, my friend. You will be missed by many. thanks for running all around Amsterdam with me even though you would have rather been sailing in the Caribbean. aho mitake oyasin.
Danny was a good man, a dear friend and a beautiful Spirit!
We enjoyed so many wonderful times together, camping, fishing, boating on the river, sailing in the Islands and hours and hours of just talking and laughing. I can hear his laughter right now. He will be missed but I’m sure we will meet again. Farewell my friend.
Danny and I grew up in Galesburg and I remember him best as one of the best athletes we had seen. Football and baseball were his sports. He always had a winning smile and a talent for his love of people. Our HS class reunion in 2014 was the last time I saw him, but his kindness and warmth will always be in my memory of him. He was one of the best!
