Dear Jay:
So sorry for your loss. Can't imagine what it's like to lose a child. I heard about Daniel when he was in high school, as he was friends with our former neighbor, Rick Valko. He sounded like n amazing young man. I hope with time, you can only remember the good memories.

Jay - Bad things do happen to good people. Harold Kushner conveyed this so beautifully in his book that you may want to turn to when you're ready. May your son's memory be a blessing for you and your family and a source of comfort in your sorrow.

I knew Dan best from the math class in 7th and 8th grade. I have very fond memories of him from that experience and remember him to be a genuine person who really cared about others. I didn't connect with him much until the 10 year high school reunion, and he was still that same person I remember from 7th grade, very honest and sincere. I'm sorry to hear that he has passed on. I will miss him.

Condolences Jay to your and your family. My prayers are with you. Sending love and healing light to each of you.

I have very fond memories of Dan (Danny back then) dating back to our tight knit group of friends in Junior High. We made the best of a challenging time in most people's lives and had fun doing it. Danny was funny and kind, and I'm so sad to hear he's left this world too soon.
