Not sure what to say?

My deepest condolences to the church family. In my adolescent years he touched my life when I was introduced to father Mike when I made my first holy communion. He made the upmost impact on my life.

Mike was life long friend and member of our family. He had a deep public and personal life, which was enjoyed by all. Mike's mother was a Catholic Angel and his father was a early. Mike was a quiet soul that emphasized helping everyone. We miss him dearly but know he left the world better place.

Father Danner officiated at our Wedding 49 yrs. ago. He was a kind, thoughtful and good friend. He will be missed.

Fr. Mike Danner severed as my Spiritual Director for many years and was one of the people supporting my in my journey to becoming a Deacon I was hired by Fr. Mike and in my interview I talked about my mom being from Ionia. He asked of her name and I found out that they shared backyards and that my mom babysat him. I really love his mother too, Adelaide. I took her to many chemo appointments. Fr. Mike was a wonderful son to his mother and helped her through her later years of life after...

Fr. Danner baptized all 4 of our children. We admired his many spirituality and accomplishments; yet he was so humble. Fr. Danner was also an EAGLE SCOUT! Thank you for your many years of ministry.

My thoughts and prayers are with all family and friends of Father Danner. I pray he is at peace.

Father Mike was such a wonderful force of faith and strength whereever he went. You just felt his presence of peace he brought with him. He married me and Tim in 1989. He was there for me and my family when it was time to say goodbye to Tim at his funeral. Thank you so very much for being part of my family and giving so much support, strength and peace in our lives. May you now enjoy your peace for eternity. Your spirit will always shine..

We were so privileged and honored to have called Father Mike our pastor and friend. What a gentleman and gentle man. We are so happy to have been able to share lunch with him in 2019 while we all wintered in Florida. We will miss you Father Mike. Rest in God's arms.
