Daniel, you were taken way too soon, but your always be remember for your eyes and happy smile. I hadn´t talked or seen you since I was played off from Southwest lift, but I often thought of you and your family as I passed by some of your kin on FM 87 when going home to La Vernia. In fact you crossed my mind 1 day before you were taken as I went to the hospital to see my great grandson be born. My condolences for your love and family. RIP Daniel. Your friend Dorothy Polasek.
