I am sad to hear of Danny's death. He kept in touch, showing his care and concern when my husband, John, was sick. I'll always remember the beautiful graveside service he conducted when I lost John last year. My prayers are with the family as you deal with this loss.

Jane and family, I am a fellow classmate of Danny and my husband, Robert, and I offer condolences for your loss. As you grieve for Danny, please know that he is finally nestled in the arms of Jesus and how much happier could he possibly be? It is my belief that as much as he loved all of you and was loved by you, after being with Jesus, he would not return even if he had an opportunity. Find strength in the faith you've shared for so many years and know that as long as you have memories Danny will always be with you.
