I am very lucky to have so many wonderful aunts and uncles and Uncle Danny was one of the special ones. He and Aunt Grace raised such a loving and caring family and he will be sorely missed. My love and sympathy go out to my cousins, aunts, uncles, extended family and mother.

I hope our happy memories keep Uncle Danny alive in our hearts forever.

My dear brother, Danny

Words are poor things when we suffer the loss of a loved one. Still I want to convey my desire, however indadequate, to offer consolation to my brother's children and grandchildren.

Times like this, I hate living in Florida.

I have such fond memories of my brother growing up. He was always kind to me.

With Love & Affection, Auntie Rosie
