Since he was sometimes quiet in meetings, I enjoyed finding him at lunch, and had rewarding and insightful conversations. He was helpfully aware of issues, and I was ever glad to hear from him. Please share my respect and appreciation with his family.

Danny will be missed by us all. We are sorry to hear of his passing. He was a man of few words but when he spoke they were well placed. May God bless and keep his soul.

It is sad to hear of Danny's passing. He was a great guy. I was his prom date in 1981. He was a great dancer, good looking and a lot of fun to hang out with. I will never forget what a dear friend he was in high school and how he helped me deal with my Fathers passing those many years ago. I am sorry to hear of the families loss and pray for their healing. God Bless, Paula Jean Potter
