Danté Wahls Obituary
Memories and Condolences

September 16, 2008
This is the one month anniversary of you going on. It was almost as hard as the day we lost you. People say it will get easier, I just don't know how or when it will. You were in my dream last night laughing and talking but I cannot remember what we were laughing and talking about but it was fun and then I woke up to go to my job and work car accidents all day. I wish I knew how to get to you or some type of magic to make you appear and have a conversation with you & feel just one more of your gentle hugs. Houston has been asking about you but he is too young for me to tell him what happened, I tell him you are around. I'll keep you alive in my heart forever and you'll always be the best brother I could've ever wished for, I still don't understand why it had to be you instead of me. Our baby sis is having a boy and he will have your name. RIP Dante. We all love you more than life. It's so hard to say goodbye! Big SiS.

My family and myself would like to thank all of you who for your wonderful words that describe Dante'. He was my baby brother and I love him more than life, he was one of my best friends. Dante' finished early, but he did what God sent him to do. He exuded strenth, kindness to no end, humor and pure love. How much more could we have asked for? We appreciate all of the kindness and love you all have shown to our family. I feel that everyone that wrote in this guestbook are simply awesome, we adore you all. Thank you all for your love and support.God Bless and know you are appreciated.

Dante was my manager at Buffalo Wild Wings. He was so friendly and made me feel really comfortable when I first started months ago. I remember last Thursday was the last time we worked together, he was eating this crazy looking salad he made and we were talking about our favorite foods. He told me his was pizza, and I'm a picky eater so he kept naming off foods and I would say, "I don't like that, or that, or that..." he laughed and said, "Are you kidding me?! Man, it would really suck to go out on a date with you!"
Dante had such a good sense of humor and he was a great spirit. I feel blessed to have known him. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

To Diane & The Stuart/Simmons Family
I just heard of Dante's passing yesterday(08-19-08), and I grieve with you. I hadn't seen him since he was very young, but I remember him as being a very kind and pleasant child. Obviously, from all the kind expressions of love from so many others, he remained the same way as a man. I feel guilty for not keeping in close touch with you and your family throughout the years , but I care deeply for the Stuart/Simmons family, and your pain is my pain. I pray that the LORD be a comfort to you at this very sad time, and I know that HE will give you strength to make it day by day, when no one or no thing can give you inner peace. Please know that I love you all, think of you often, and plan to see you in the near future. I know that you will have peace and pleasant memories of Dante, and know that he knew how much he was loved by his family.

Mrs. Stuart, You probably will not remember me, but I taught at Penn Forest when Dante' went there. I taught with Cheri Johnson, and we have been talking about what a special young man we had in class. We remembered his special smile and how much we enjoyed working with him. I know you will miss him greatly as will many who knew him. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

there is so much i want to write here about you dante, but first i want to see send my prayers and condolences to your family and friends. you were an amazing guy. we had so many good times and i can honestly say that you were there for me when i needed someone the most and some common sense to clear my head. i know that one day i'll see you again, but until then you will always stay in the back of my mind. i still remember the 1st day of us working together. we clicked from then on, even working our way up together. i'm going to miss the piggy back rides you gave me everywhere. hahaha. i know that i'll have a smile on my face from now on whenever i hear an incubus song. i will miss you and always love you.

I am very sorry to hear of your loss. I didn't know Dante as well as I would have liked to. But I became somewhat close with different employees and Buffalo Wild Wings and I always loved to see Dante. During the late hours and busy time he always had a smile on his face and I will hate not hearing "back again" from him. Know that he is another Angel sent to heaven and will be missed by all that know him. Again your family is in my thoughts and prayers. I am very sorry for your loss.

Diane and family,
I felt your pain when you called in wee hours of the morning to inform us of our loss. I could only call on the name of Jesus when you told me the passing of our loving nephrew.
Donte knew the Lord and I know that he is safe in Jesus loving embrace. I pray for all of us that are left among the living accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, so that we someday will be welcome in our new home. We will miss him calling to check on Ron and I. I will miss him stopping by just to give Auntie a hug and Uncle Ron some dap. We will miss his hugs and corny jokes :). Diane/Don know that your son was well loved by all that came across his path. Please rejoice in his homegoing for he is fine
Love and Blessing to all.

I worked with Dante for 4 months and he was probably one of the best Managers there. There wasn't a day that didn't go by that he wouldn't make a joke about something. He also had the guys in the kitchen cracking up. He and I shared the same music tastes and I will never forget that .He will truely be missed.

Dante was a bestfriend, a shoulder to cry one, there for you when you needed a laugh..I never seen Dante with out a smile on his face but.. the list could go on forever, its endless..But Dante lived his life to the fullest. I can't remember what Dante didn't do, everyday he had something new he wanted to do and he did. I worked with Dante for 3 yrs, I seen him grow so much as a person and in life, from working in the kitchen to manager. Its amazing how well he did. Dante will be truely missed by everyone. He will always be with us in our hearts.
