Daniel James Spangler

My condolences to Danny's family and loved ones.
My sister Charlotte was a good friend of Niki's , back in the day, and through her I had the pleasure of knowing the Spangler family. I got to "hang out" with Cherie and see Danny and The Temptations play a few times. They were awesome and I was "star struck". He was a really nice guy. I'm sure Danny is striking up the band where he is now "hanging out".
Rest In Peace Danny and keep on playing.
God Bless

Dan was a great friend and neighbor who lived down the street from me in the 60s. We shared many adventures in those carefree days. Among them was a 50 mile hike we endured from Cedar Rapids to Iowa City and back on a cold and snowy Good Friday 1963 during the JFK era. Dan was an excellent musician and playing the drums and other instruments was natural for him. My sincere condolences to Danny's family. He was truly a wonderful human being who will be missed by everyone who was fortunate...

Dan was a nurse at St. Luke's Hospital, where I worked my first job as a nurse. He taught me a lot about how to be a good nurse. I only saw him once after he retired, but I remember him as a great guy. My condolences to his family during this time.

Niki, Joyce and all,
I have no words, just memories. Many many memories. The first time the gang heard Dannys band play we went crazy and that was the beginning of the basement/garage band parties for us. Danny was in Jr. Hi. Growing up with our families connected over the years was truly a blessing and Danny and your family will always be remembered by me and my sisters as you have over the years when some little thing brought back a memory to be smiled and laughed about. Stay strong...
