DANIEL FERGUSON CARRUTHERS III

Danny you are a very very special person. I am proud to have spent time with you.

The Turners' description of Danny as an extraordinary character with whom one could have a very interesting, surprising and fun conversation at any time of day or night on almost any subject is so true. He was also one of the alltime great raconteurs who could make the most ordinary situation seem like one of the best moments ever just in the retelling, Danny-style. No party that I attend in the future that would have, should have included Danny, had this early demise not stunned us all,...

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

I will miss Danny very much. His sense of fun, wonder and adventure was contagious, and he brought much joy to those of us who knew him. We will always be grateful for the way he enriched our lives.

To all of Danny's family, I have known Danny since he came to East High School. We were at U.T. together and had some wonderful times with so many other friends. Danny had an infectious laugh and was kind to everyone. He was bright, always ready for and adventure, fun to be with. I am so sorry for your loss. And, I know you have many wonderful memories to share to keep his spirit alive. Susan Glazer

My Sincerest Condolences,

We had a puppy that needed to be let out at 3 am, Danny knew we were new to the neighbor also that my wife and I were dentists. Danny came right over at 3 am , introduced himself said he was in search of chocolate milk an then we talked about the movie Marathon Man for 15 min. And the great conversations and stories go from there no...
