Danny was an amazing, genuine and kind man. He was my older brother´s friend, but he was also a close friend to our family for years. Danny brought out the best in others. He put a huge smile on our faces and whenever you looked at others around him they were always smiling and laughing. Our sympathies go out to all of his family and friends. We are very blessed that he was in our lives. Sending love. Pat and Kurt Albrecht

I met Dan at The Pub where we and our partners played pinochle in the league. He was fun and a nice guy. My condolences to his family and close friends.

I know Dan from pickleball. We also both graduated from Euclid. Dan's the type of guy that as soon as you meet him, it feels like you've known him forever. Dan and Ann are a perfect fit. He will be greatly missed.

Family of Danny King. So sad to hear about Danny. We worked at CEI together and always enjoyed having him around. He was at my wedding and was a good friend for many years. I pray your family can find some peace in knowing how good of a person he was.
