He is survived by his two sons, Daniel Austin Tower (Stefnie Hill Miller), and their children Austin Maeve Tower and Danson Hill Miller.

Danny was one of the greatest persons I have ever known. He never meet a person, who did not end up being a friend. I meet Danny through my sister back in high school, who is now in heaven. He and my sister were always laughing and had a great time together. I feel quite assured that Danny and my sister Shauna are still laughing and cutting up. Danny will be greatly missed by everyone he knew. Rest In Peace my friend. You will not be forgotten.

My condolences to Danny’s family.
I met Danny in the late 80’s. He always had a smile, a one of a kind personality and told some great stories of the past. He was great man and father.
Rest In Peace

My heart was so sad when I heard the news about my friend's passing. I worked with Danny in 1984, and his wit was as intense as his intelligence. Danny will be missed by those who knew him. Rest in peace, my friend.
