Monica and family,
I am so sorry to hear of Danny's illness and passing. You spoke of him so often and I know he was a great big brother. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in this time of sorrow. My special condolence to your mother, I I know this is especially difficult for her. Our boys are always our 'sweet little boys' no matter how old they get.

I recognized Danny Doskocil's name in the paper and wanted to express my sympathy for the whole family; my family was once close to Lulu and was always touched about how close the whole Doskocil family was. I'm sure Danny carried that with him. May God bless you.

Danny's life was a very special gift to all who knew him. His incredible sense of (clean) humor, especially in the midst of his suffering and pain, was his most memorable trademark. Danny's illness caused him to cross my path again after many years, and I am so grateful for the moments we shared. It was also very special to watch his family minister to him and love him in the most tangible ways. I will miss Danny!

I would like to send my condolences to all the Doskocil
family. They were such a nice and
close family when I knew them in Mansfield. May God be near to all of you at this time.
