To my friends, The Durr Family,

I am just learning of the death of Daniel today, Thanksgiving Day. Please know that you have my deepest sympathy. Safranski, we have shared so many events since we met at Hamilton High School. We have continued through the years. I can't say that I know how you fill because I have not experienced the death of a sibling. But please know that GOD is still in control, and it is His will to be done. I will always remember the fun times that you, Daniel, Lee and I shared. I will continue to lift up your mother and the entire family in prayer as you experience this moment in time.



Your Lifelong friend,

Gregory Michael Siggers

Melba our thoughts and prayers are with you. Know that God’s promises are true and that to be absent from the body is to be present with the lord. Danni is safe and secure in GOD’s hands. He sleeps until fulfilling of the promise, wherein GOD has said he will wipe every tear from our eyes, there will be no more passing, mourning or crying and all who believe in him will meet again on that day never to be parted again. The LORD is faithful to all his promises and loving to all he has made. Our fond memories of him will never fade from our hearts and minds. He is loved and remembered always. God Bless.
