Danny was many things to us. He was our Mr Fix It, our Willie Nelson and most important a close friend. He was the person you looked for when you came to work. Danny could put a smile on your face so easily. We will think of you always. Tmobile will not be the same without you.

Danny, even though your spirit has left this lifetime we know that if we believe in Jesus and die we shall live with our Father in Heaven. John 11:25 Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live." May you forever Rest In the Presence of God. You are greatly missed. P.s. Enjoy fishing!

Danny, I will miss you a lot my friend! We had a lot of fun times and sometimes a lot of hard work together. After 9 years of working together there will always be a part of me missing everytime I start a project. We made a great team all those years! There wasn't much we couldn't do once we set our minds to it. You was the best employee and friend I could have asked for. I will miss you more than you'll ever know! May God bless you and your family my friend.
