Hi Mrs. Hobbs,
My name is Debbie Hunley-Stukes and I graduated with Danny with the class of 1978. I, (along with 5 other members of the class of 1978) was at the funeral last week, but was unable to speak with you personally. Your husband was a great man and a funny classmate:). We all were happy to see him at the last class reunion. He truly touched the lives of so many in his youthful years, and I was happy to hear that his warm witty spirit continue in his adult life.
I pray that God will continue to bless you and your family as you go through this difficult time. Danny will forever be that loving angel that now has a pernament job in haven. He will forever be with you and your children.
God Bless You.

Judy,
We were sad to hear about Danny. You babysat for Theresa when she was going to Enon School. After you moved we missed seeing you. It was really a shock. You and your family will be in our prayers.

I have had so many memories of our cousin Danny since hearing the sad news. My earliest memories of Danny are at the house in Louisville and then the big move to Petersburg. I vividly remember our big visit (I was a proud kindergarten graduate) when we rode the passenger train from Winchester KY to Richmond VA. I got to play in the ocean for the first time with Danny and Gerry at Virginia Beach. Then my memories return to the excitement of summer vacations when Danny and Gerry came to KY and we would play at our house in Ravenna, at Granddaddy Hobbs' house, and at Old Orchard. It was always such an event when we were all together. I also owe my cousin Danny a debt of gratitude for introducing me to Mad magazine, and starting a lifelong addiction to Spy vs. Spy. I am so sorry for our loss and I pray for strength and peace for our family, especially Uncle George, Aunt Myrna, and Judy, Amanda, and Daniel. Our thoughts are with you, especially in the next few difficult days.
Love, Margaret and Regan
