Publish in a newspaper
Daniel Gerard Lang, 62, of Springfield, MO passed away on Wednesday, April 10, 2024. He was born on August 29, 1961, to Louis and Dorothy Lang in Chicago, Illinois.
He was preceded in death by his parents and his sister-in-law, Brenda Ann Lang.
Danny is survived by his four siblings, brother, William Lang, sisters, Marian Lang, Geralyn Herrmann and husband Mike, Michelle Moffett and husband Jeff; and nephews Travis Lang, Forrest Herrmann, fiancée Gianna Jarrett, nieces, Kelsey Delgado, husband Esteban, River Delgado, Kayla Moffett, Maddison Moffett, extended family members, friends and loved ones.
Danny enjoyed cooking, won cheese tasting contests, Chili cook off contests and baking all different flavors of cheesecakes to be shared with co-workers and friends. He also enjoyed creating dishes for the potluck lunches that were held at work. Over the years, Danny even baked a few of our family favorites, New England donuts, Pogacha with raisins, Bohemian Braids, and the famous pinwheel cookies.
Danny's free time was spent with his love of art and music. Our dear brother enjoyed creating special art masterpieces for both family and friends, each unique in style for the lucky person who would be the recipient of such a gift.
Danny always had a joke for you and a wonderful sense of humor, which will be sorely missed. Danny possessed an infectious laugh and a beautiful smile that will be remembered by all that were blessed to know him.
Irish Blessing
May the road rise up
to meet you,
May the wind be always
at your back,
May the sun shine warm
upon your face,
And the rain fall soft
upon your fields,
And until we meet again,
May God hold you
in the palm of His hand.

Danny was such a sweetheart, and his art was something to admire. He was always there with encouragement and help, and always willing to listen. He will be missed. He added color to the world for the people around him, and the world is a sadder place for his passing.

I have worked with Danny many years. He brought lots of laughs with his quippy and some times sartastic remarks. He took the time to help his team mates and and make the workplace a bit better every day. He will be greatly missed by all thoes he touched. THINK WHITE FLUFFY CLOUDS!!!!!

At work, there are those that really aren't all that good at the job, those who are decent at the job because they know the facts, and those who make things better, for clientele and coworker alike, because their personality of listening, caring, and genuinely, generally just wanting to make the world a little better simply has that effect.
Danny was the latter.
He and I were not "tight" but we did talk a bit, here & there. Every time, it was either about how to do things better - professionally, personally, or artistically.
I have no doubt that, out there, somewhere, an amazing little baby boy was recently born... It is the world maintaining balance of what was lost.

Danny was a pleasure to work with. He genuinely cared about people. He was always smiling and always saying something to make us laugh. He will be immensely missed.

From the ability to make me laugh so hard, I cried, to all of the great conversations we had. . . . I was blessed to know Danny and will miss him very much! My heart hurts because this world has one less beautiful, good soul in it. Work will not be the same without you, my friend and I will try to, in your words, " Think white puffy clouds".

Worked with Danny for years at TTEC. Always had a good laugh and always fun to talk to. We had a lot of good conversations. He was a genuinely good hearted human being and will be missed. As he always used to say. Catch ya later!

What I know for sure about Danny is this: He had a huge heart. He cared deeply about his friends. He loved music, and a frequent gift to his loved ones was a personally-curated CD of music that reminded him of them. He didn´t have confidence in his own abilities much of the time, but he supported his friends in accomplishing their dreams 110%. Danny was a sensitive soul, wanting nothing more than to see others smile, share a laugh with them, feel connected to them. He adored Christmas, and held onto the magic of the season with the simplicity and honesty of a child´s faith. He struggled when he saw meanness in the world. I take comfort in the fact that he will no longer see meanness or cruelty again.
