Thanks to my sister, I am seeing this. Danny was my cousin, though we never got to meet. That makes me sad, because cousins are always the best and our family is filled with great ones. Rest in peace, Danny and say hello to your folks and mine.

Danny, just found out about your passing...when I started out working the Improv as a doorman you gave me great advice about the Industry and I always will be grateful to you for that. It's been a while since we saw each other but you will always be dear in my heart.

So blessed to find this tonight. Danny was my first cousin, though I hadn't seen him in many years. So few family members left. I remember a great trip to LA in 1986. I had the privilege of seeing Danny perform at the Comedy Store right before Yakov. He made a big deal of my being there and did a funny bit about my dad, George, before he segued into his Dangerfield impression. It is sad but wonderful to read all the comments here. Thank you.

Oh Danny I called you several times two days after you passing & wondering why youre not answering, i miss you so much and wish i wasnt working so much so that i would have called you sooner, you were always so supportive and believed in me even when i didnt believe in myself, you were always so funny and knew how to make me laugh, you could make anyone laugh, thats why i valued your opinion so much and the fact that you believed in me and my comedic stills. It was an honor to make a funny guy like yourself laugh. Now youre with the angels, and making them laugh, im sure i will see you again some day. i love you rest in peace. Im heartbroken that you passed away.

A nice, sweet guy. It's been a while, but I'll miss the idea of running into him and his big hello.

It was great to re-connect with you via Facebook, Danny, albeit for a shorter time than any of us hoped. You were always kind to me and I will never forget that.

Danny, although we lost touch for all those years after high school, it was great to reconnect on Facebook. We shared that deep love of animals and I thank you for always having kind words for me and my family (2 legged and 4 legged). Your big heart and big smile will be missed.

Rest In Peace Danny, so glad through FB we reconnected.. Keep everyone up there laughing, and know that you will be missed...

Danny,
Feel proud that your persona impacted many many people all throughout your life and that you will always be remembered in a good way that will bring a smile and laughter to all that had the pleasure of knowing you. We will always be bonded by watching Reggie's baseball folklore heroics in the 1977 World Series which seems like yesterday! Rest peacefully Rodney.....
