Hey Dan,
I didnt know you but I feel as though I do in a way. In honor of the scholarship, I was awarded recently in your memory, I plan to do many things with what I've been given in life. Recently being connected to you is an honor, and I'm glad for getting to know you a bit better through your mother and father. I will always be thinking of you whenever I catch my next fish, or whenever I reach my next goal. You've "altered" my life in a small, but very powerful way, and I hope you could know that. Thank you

Nature

As a fond mother, when the day is o'er,
Leads by the hand her little child to bed,
Half willing, half reluctant to be led,
And leave his broken playthings on the floor,
Still gazing at them through the open door,
Nor wholly reassured and comforted
By promises of others in their stead,
Which, though more splendid, may not please him more;
So Nature deals with us, and takes away
Our playthings one by one, and by the hand
Leads us to rest so gently, that we go
Scarce knowing if we wish to go or stay,
Being too full of sleep to understand
How far the unknown transcends the what we know.

By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Karen Lincoln

Hi Danny, We had a small gathering at Jackie and Dave's today. It was your parents, Alicia, me and of course your adorable mischievous nephews Sam and Tristan (your godson). We enjoyed watching them play with all of their gifts that they got from Santa. We had a nice turkey dinner. We all miss and love you!
PLEASE IF YOU CAN HEAR ME-HELP ME WITH THIS SADNESS!!! Just when I think I’m okay, I’m not. I love you, this wasn't supposed to happen. We should be talking wedding plans. I'm so lost without you and don’t know what to do with myself.
This quote is so appropriate to the way I feel. "Just because her eyes don't tear doesn't mean her heart doesn't cry. And just because she comes off strong, doesn't mean there's nothing wrong."
I watched the movie P.S. I Love You and it's something you wouldn't have watched with me because it's a "chick flick". It had its sad moments but also some reassuring words that I think will help me. There's a song in the movie called "Love You 'Til the End” and it’s very appropriate to the way I feel.
Some of the things I miss? I know it used to bother you when I was sad but now I don’t get that big squeeze of a hug after you say it anymore and the words for me not to worry and you would take care of everything. :-( I miss the long goodbyes before you left for work or to go out…3 kisses and a hug then back for more. You were always so gentle, caring and sweet and I couldn’t have picked a better person to have in my life. I still have the days with major meltdowns---don't ever forget how much I love you and always will. There will not ever be a replacement for you. EVER!
Alicia is really getting this now and she said she knew she gave you hard times but she really did love you and she misses you.
We all hope to have closure soon. Once again, I love you. Don’t ever forget it no matter what happens in my life down the line. You’ll always be in my heart forever.

MERRY CHRISTMAS DANNY! I spent last night with your family at Jackie's house. Sam knows/realizes that Santa was coming so I'm sure this will be a really cute year for Christmas for him. We all missed you and it was a difficult night last night. Your mother made us all something to keep by our sides as a memory of you. It was very special and touching. 12 weeks tomorrow. I miss you so much, Danny! I love you and won't ever forget you...even for a moment. I hope you're in a better place and able to enjoy the holiday. Love, Karen

To the love of my life...I went to visit your grave for the 1st time yesterday with Ryan DeLue. We both brought you pumpkins (one of which Alicia painted for you) and stood together thinking how this could have happened to such an amazing person. We all love you and hurt so much each day. This week will be hard because it's the 1st holiday without you. I can only hope that the man upstairs has some delicious food for you to eat and you enjoy your Thanksgiving while watching over us and helping us get through the day. We'll all be thinking about you all day...as we always do. I LOVE YOU, KAREN

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Dan ,today I went to your grave to see if we could put a head stone there.And I thought to myself with tears rolling down my face this can't be true,my son who had so much going for him,kind, gentle, roll of the shoulder kind of guy, was kind and caring had a special bond with special needs and other handicap people. And alot of those people put there care in your hands and you never let them down.
So I stand at your grave and Iam baffled how this tragedy could of happend to you, but I will never know why.
Hey, dan save two seats up there and dad and I will join you when the time comes. untill than we love you and miss you dearly. mom

November 3, 2008

Words cannot express the sadness and loss that we have endured since Danny's passing. He was a wonderful little brother to me, someone who I loved and protected like no other. I wish I had been on the boat that day because I would have thrown my life on the line to save him. He was such a compassionate, loving, forgiving person who would give his last dollar for someone in need; its just sad that his life of giving and compassion ended in such a tragic way, with so many unanswered questions, and none of us having a chance to say goodbye.

I guess I will never understand why such a good hearted person with so much to give to the world and to others would be taken from us so young with no opportunity to be saved. But I can only hope that God has a reason that maybe we will someday understand. The only thought that gives me comfort is knowing that Danny is surely in Heaven with God and all the angels and saints. He led a life of humility and kindness and he is surely being rewarded for the dedication that he gave in his life. I only hope that I can be as a good of a person as he was and that someday we'll meet again, upon that Golden Shore, and once again he'll be my brother, In Heaven, forever more.

Attached are some photos of Danny, one of him and I - I know this was one his favorite photos so I thought he would enjoy me posting it.

Walk Slowly Dan, we'll catch up. I promise you we will. Love you Bro - your big sis.

October 16, 2008

To Paul/Joann & rest of Danny's family:
I don't know what it's like to lose a son, a child ? . . . but I do know what it's like to lose a brother. So I know what most of you are going through, and my heart goes out to all of you. It's amazing how loved Dan was, and how he touched so many. I didn't know him very well, but it sounds like he was a blessing to anyone & everyone who met him. And if it's any consolation, that's a testimony to what great parents you two were, and continue to be. God always seems to take the good ones much too early, so there's one more amazing soul in heaven looking down on all of us.

Anyway, I was touched by his family's and friend's entries, so I just wanted to leave a message, and to let you know that he is in my/our prayers and thoughts, as are all of you.

take care & God Bless, Dana (& dawn)

Godbless and my condolences to his family and freinds.

My condolences to Dan's family. Dan was one of the funniest people I've ever met.

I know he will be missed by many people, especially all those that grew up with him on Harvey Circle.

Paul, Joann and family
Our deepest sympathy goes out to all of you. I remember Danny as a child running around Harvey Circle playing with the DeLue boys and the other kids. It seems like only yesterday that we had field day and watermelon in our yard. We have been gone from Harvey Circle for a good number of years. However they are some of our fondest memories. Ben our oldest stayed in touched with his best friends on Harvey Circle and Dan was one of them. We were shocked when we heard news. God must have some big plans for him in heaven to have take him at such a young age. He will live on in the hearts and minds of those he touched. We have been blessed because he touched our lives.

May you find comfort and strength in these days and weeks ahead in knowing others share in your sorrow.
Dan's family and friends will be in our thoughts and prayers.

With sincere sympathy.

To all the family and friends of Dan and to all who were lucky enough to have been touched by him in some way, i am so sorry for your loss and you all are in my prayers.
Dan trained and taught at my gym (south shore sportfighting) and had been with us since the very beginning back in 2001. Dan was such a genuinely nice and laid back guy so it may surprise you to know that he was an extremely skilled grappler. I recall a tournament years ago where Dan was matched up against one of the toughest, most scary looking men i had ever seen. This guy was mean. Dan quickly caught him in a leg lock and made the guy quit. He then helped him up, shook his hand, helped him walk off the mat and made friends with him. That was just him.
I'm thankful to have known him and thankful for all the time he spent helping out the newer students at the gym which he loved to do.
He was a character and someone that no one will ever forget.
Again, my deepest condolences go out to you all.

Jonathan

October 7, 2008

A Fisherman's Prayer...

Dear Lord, I pray,
Let me fish 'til
That certain day,
And when your net
Is cast into the deep,
I pray you judge
And find me fit to keep,
When in your home
O'Lord I say,
Forever may
I fish and stay

Danny, I don't know how this could have happened to you...I love and miss you so much and you and Alicia are the most important parts of my life. Alicia and I are going to have such a void in our life without you. I'll always love you and this wasn't our plan that we made together. My only hope is that you're at peace. I LOVE YOU! ~Karen
