A friend, a man of choice. Loved his sense of humour and his fun attitude about my name. Always, in my view, very humble, knew his Bible, friendly and very spiritual. We will miss him and his ability to reach out to others. Our prayers go out to his family upon this very great loss. He is definitely missed. Ted & Pam Williams

Our sympathy goes out to Danny's children, grandchildren and all of his family. Danny continued to keep in touch through the years and always talked proudly of his family. He will live on in many memories, ours will be of teenage years and times shared. We will always think of him with a smile.
