Hey bud. So we really didn't interact on Twitter and r/NASCAR until recently, but you'd been there for as long as I could remember and you were always one of the friendliest, coolest dudes on there. When we finally started talking one-on-one about a month ago, you confirmed my idea that you were generally a cool dude. It's jarring, for lack of a better word, to know that you're gone so soon after we started up talking to each other, but I guess it's the way things go. Rest easily, bud, and thank you for all you've done.

My condolences to the family. Thank you sir for your service. Thank you for your smile and passion. I am sad we never met in this life, and look with joyful optimism to meeting in the future. Love you to your family. Be blessed.

I only knew you through r/NASCAR and had a couple interactions in the comments with you. I admire the love and passion you had for our great motorsport. What really makes it hurt is losing a brother-in-arms. Fair winds and following seas, shipmate. We have the watch.

I am sorry for your loss. He was a very active poster of r/nascar on Reddit, which is where I know of him from. He and all of you are in my thoughts.

To know that I talked to you before your birthday hurts even more than seeing the news of your passing. To see you lying in the casket is surreal. We had some of the best times together that I won't ever forget. You never forgot about me when you went moved, went overseas, etc. I'm so blessed to have met you and see you before you left for Washington again. I'll miss you asking me for pictures to hype me up and tagging me in NASCAR posts only cause you knew I thought one of the drivers were cute. You gave me the absolute most useless knowledge of different things, but I'll never forget. I appreciate you for bringing me up to Washington and showing me around to site see. You will truly be missed and forever apart of my heart. One of the very few pics I have of you smiling you sent me. I still have every conversation we ever had. You were one of my dearest and closer friends and I will forever miss you. RIP. . ❤

"No parent should have to bury a child....no mother should have to bury her son. Mothers are not meant to bury sons. It is not the nature order of things."
Gloria and Victor, words are inadequate to express our deepest condolences. We pray you and your family take comfort in knowing that in such a time, you are never alone because, the Lord is close to the brokenhearted and He saves those who are crushed in spirit. Take heart.

Gloria, Vic and Michael, words cant describe the loss of a child/brother but we serve an awesome God! Weeping may endure for a night, but JOY comes in the morning! Donnell was a respectable child and he will truly be missed.

I love you Donnell so very much. It's hard taking this because we were so close. You were like the big brother I never had. I love you until we meet again.

The songwriter says "When peace like a river attended my way. When sorrow like sea pillow rolls. Whatever my lot, thou (God) has taught me to say It Is Well" . Gloria and Victor have been a family for many of us from Liberia that go to Fort Benning for military trainings. I am still shocked by the news of Daniel's death but I kn that he is resting with God.
Once again on behalf of my family I want to say have my sympathy and may God console you.
