Diane, I went to school with Danny and meet your son Daniel at Liberty High, where my grandchildren (The Hoffer Children) went to school also. I saw him and knew immediately that he had to be related to Danny, so I ask of course. He looked exactly like I remembered Danny from school...I am so sorry for your loss and I pray that our Heavenly Father holds you all close to His side as you go through these sad days ahead...Let your wonderful memories of Danny and your family and friends be a comfort to you.

Well, "Rip" (as Danny called so many), will be greatly missed by so many people in Louisville. I think I saw Danny most Fridays for the past 20+ years. He always had shrimp to sell that he claimed were big enough to ride tricycles. I will certainly miss his humor each Friday. God bless and comfort his family during this difficult time.
