Hey Danny,
You were a really good man, and a great cousin. I loved you!
I saw you , along with my wife Carolyn. And your sister Carolyn at the hospital days before your passing. I´m happy to have been afforded a last chance to talk with you.
I recall on one occasion, you and your wife ,Carolyn, me , and my wife Carolyn , and your sister Carolyn all had a lovely dinner at Judge Roy Bean´s restaurant on Hwy 377 in Keller.
We all laughed about the fact that all three ladies dining with us were named " CAROLYN!"
I´ll be 81 in fourty days, if the Lords willing,
And my wife , Carolyn and I are still close with your sister , Carolyn!
We all will be with you , sooner than later.....

You were not only my daddy but my friend. I miss you everyday. I just keep waiting to hear my phone ring with your ringtone. Your life was cut way too short. Garrett and Lexi were lucky to have you as their Papa. If you ever want to talk, please come talk to me, I would love that. I LOVE YOU DADDY.
