Danny was my next-door neighbor, my 30+-year friend, my carpenter, my fixer of things broken, my distant cousin, my nature consultant, my gin-and-tonics-on-my-porch pal. He was my only friend who would speak Spanish when I called! It was always so reassuring to know Danny was on the other side of the fence. He was an awesome lover of all animals and people (especially Mary and his family), and a great defender of the neighborhood and its residents. I will miss him so much. Hola, Danny!

Just like his hoop idol Connie Hawkins, Danny was an undrafted SuperStar! I'll miss our 11-21 conversations. Fellow Bosco Bear RIP!

Mary and Danny's family, I am so sorry for your loss. Danny was a wonderful neighbor. He was so full of life that is hard to imagine him not being here with us still. He always took the time to chat with me and my family and give our dog a treat he kept in his pocket. He would point out the beautiful, small things around us and help me appreciate the life we all have. I am holding all of you and Danny in my heart.
