Uncle Danny was the Best Uncle/ Father to Daniel and I . When I was Pregnant with Baby Danny it was winter and I had a craving for watermelon, and he went shopping for watermelon late at night, uncle Danny always showed his Love towards our children and I have the Best memories when him Tia would come and stay in Colorado with us . Uncle Danny Thank you for your Love and always being there for us . I Love you, see you in Heaven ❤

Danny was my first supervisor at Northwest. He had such patience with the newbies. He and Stella were so lovely together. So many Chicago res agents enjoyed working with him. It was a great place to work, thanks to Danny. Of course I was fortunate to also know him and Stella socially in Chicago and when they came to Hawaii. Thanks for the memories Danny. Love you Stella.

Will always remember Danny's love for making us laugh and feel good about ourselves. His love for his wife Stella. RIH ♥

I met Danny when I transferred to Chicago while working for Northwest Airlines. He was a joy to know and work with. He always had a smile and words of wisdom to share. I will miss him and was blessed to know him and met his lovely wife Stella. RIP Danny.

I met Danny when t transferred to the Chicago reservation office of NorthWest Airlines. We became friends almost immediately, he was always willing to help and always had a great big smile on his face. I became of his many “Sistas” at NorthWest and was always proud to call him my friend. I will miss Danny, but grateful that he gave us Stella to carry on the friendship.
Mercedes’ George.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
