Daniel, your obituary showed up in my email this morning. Still can't believe you are no longer with us. Im still so thankful for that last conversation we had about life work, and kids... and I'm thankful you were always like a kid brother to me everytime I saw you around the yard even after everything! During some of my fondest memories, you were there! Hope you are living your best life in heaven, you are so missed down here. Your kids are growing beautifully. Maleah is truly your mini!

Prayers and love for you, your kids, your brothers, parents and family. Taken from this world way too soon!
