Not sure what to say?

As one of his students, I can say that I always looked forward to seeing Coach Sparrow at NHS. He always made my day brighter. My sympathy and prayers to his family.

I was deeply saddened by the news of Dan's passing. Our heartfelt condolences to you and your family. We were cousins and words cannot express our sorrow. Danny will be truly missed. Forever Remembered, Forever Missed

This is a sad day for me. I am shocked and stunned by this loss. Anybody who knew Danny Sparrow knew he had the heart of a teddy bear, the smarts to succeed, and an intense will to win. I remember when we were both at Central High School and you could tell he was going to go on to bigger and better things. Later, when he coached at North High School, he was a major reason for North's academic and athletic successes('95 State Runner-Up in football, '96 Blue Ribbon School come to mind). I had...

I'll always remember Danny as a nice and personable friend. We went to school and played ball at the firebarn as kids. My prayers are with his family.

I was deeply saddened about hearing about Danny. It has been years since I have seen him. I grew up with him. Those who know him then and now understand what a great person he was. By reading all the wonderful dedications is a testament to his legacy. I will personally miss you but you are in a much better place. I wish his family all the prayers in the world. God Bless...

My thoughts and prayers are with Dan's family. Dan was one of the first teachers we hired at North after I became principal and he proved to be a very positive influence and a good role model for students at North.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I was saddened to hear of Danny's passing at such a young age. I remember playing basketball against Danny in grade school (Highland vs. Stringtown), and then playing football together at Central. I only saw him on occasion, when I came back home to Evansville, but from those that knew him in his adult life, it sounds like he touched many people in a great way. My prayers are with his family!

Coach Sparrow was an awesome man! You could tell he really loved his job and cared about his students. I honestly don't think anybody could have taught gym better than him! May you rest in piece and fly high with the angels above and shine your bright smile down on us. Prayers go out to the sparrow family! so sorry for your lost.
