Well Dani its been nearly two months and I'm still struggling to come to my senses that your no longer with us. I often just sit and think about all the times we had like when you and your family were nice enough to take me snowboarding for the first time and how many times we would joke around in class and just find the smallest things so funny or when you forgot my middle name but knew it started with an M so i convinced you it was margret lol. I'll never forget what a bright outlook and postive view you had on the world Dani. I know your somewhere special. Keep smilin, I hope to see you again sometime and your always going to be close to my heart. We all miss you. My heart goes out to you Shauna, Vince, and all the litttle ones, thank you and god bless.

Dani,

You were one of the sweetest, kindest and funniest people I feel privileged to have known. I will never forget our random joking around in French and movie discussions. You will be dearly missed. I'll never, ever forget you! Rest in peace, dear. My sympathies and prayers go to your family.

Dani,
I've come to peace with what has happened, my only regret was that we didn't keep in touch as much as we should've, but hey I'm not in pain anymore. God took you under his wing. People say the good die young, that's why you're up there. All I ask is that you remain close to your family and Dave. I love you Dani, I will see you soon k. Bye Dani

Dani,

I've known you since kindergarten, and I can still remember our enactments of Power Rangers and Sailor Moon. You were either Pink Ranger or Sailor Venus, depending on the game plan for the day. Those were good days, and when ever I'll think about you, those will be the days that come to my mind. You always had a vibrant smile that made everyone who saw it smile in return. Even as we grew older and went to different high schools, it was no problem catching up the few times we did see each other. The last time I saw you was at one of the Pho (Vietnamese) Restaurants near Ariel's house about a year and a half ago. It was you, Ariel, Jessie, David, and myself. It was the first and only time I ever met your BF David, and I am happy you found someone who cares about you so much. It was a fun lunch, and your bubbly personality was the same as I remembered it. You were a wonderful person with a gentle heart and a luminous personality. You were one of my first friends, and I will miss you greatly.
I'll continue to pray for you and your family. Keep their hearts strong.

I was truly honored to have met and spent time with Dani. I had only known her for less than a year, but even then I felt as though she was a friend for life. It's hard to believe that I won't see her again. My deepest condolences to her family, friends, and anyone else whose lives were impacted by this truly tragic event.

Dear Dani,
It is so weird to think that you and I spoke via myspace just 2 weeks ago filling each other in on how our lives are going. I didn't find out about the accident until last night, and when I did find out I was crushed! You were always so sweet and bubbly! I loved talking to you and being around you you always brought a smile to my face no matter what! I remember when you were in the 3rd grade and my father had past, when I retured to school you were one of the first kids to come up to me and tell me how sorry you were and you were only 7 or 8! I will always remember you as well as every single person you have come in contact with will remember you. I know we were never close but I always had so much respect for you! I will miss you dearly! And to her family and many close friends, may God be with you in this very hard time. I am so sorry for your loss!!!

Dani,

Where can I Begin? Sadly I didn't have enough time to get to know you as well as I should. I know this, you were a joy to be around and always brightened up my day. I'm glad that we at least had our time standing outside of Turner Hall rain or shine, I'll treasure those little chats.

I know wherever you are your making someone's day a little brighter, you will be severely missed.

Dear DiTirro Family,
I feel privileged to have had the pleasure of being a small part of Danielle's short life. I feel blessed to have been her Kindergarten teacher (as well as Jacob's and Tony's) and to have shared with her and her wonderful family her first year of school. She was one of those special children who brought joy to all who knew her. (Teachers love to have children like Danielle) She will truly be missed Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you at this most difficult time.

Dani was an amazing roommate and my best friend. I've never met anyone as funny, intelligent, gorgeous, and patient as she was. I absolutely adored Dani and I can't imagine how this year is going to be without her. She did so much for me and the year I spent with Dani made it the best it could be. This is truely tragic and we will all miss her and remember her in our own ways. Prayers for the DiTirros & Dave.
