Danny, Geoff and I had the most awesome time when we stayed with you. You made Chicago the favourite place of our 12 month adventure. Mum (god rest her) and dad loved your friendship and enjoyed the travels you guys had together. Geoff's nose has never really recovered from Ralph's love kiss!! RIP dearest friend, say hello to mum up there, go look for her she will give you a big Aussie hug and kiss. We will always have you in our hearts and are so happy that we met each other on this earth. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Daniel came to Australia and stayed with myself and my late wife Barbara. I was sad to see that Daniel had passed away.
He was a great man who looked after his family. He also looked after my daughter Tanya and her husband Geoff when they stayed with him... We tried to find out what happened to Daniel when he returned home, but could not find out...
To his family and friends, I send my condolences to you.... we have very fond memories of him....regards Alan Woodroffe and family.. RIP in peace Daniel

I've known Danny for over 35 years. Danny had a big, caring, loving heart. He genuinely loved and cared for his family (first and foremost) his friends and humanity. He loved people. Period.
I have years and years (and lots of pictures!) of nothing but fond, warm, wonderful memories of Danny. I will miss his voice, his physical presence, but will always carry his wonderful spirit in my heart.
Another beautiful shining star has been added to this wonderful Universe.

Where to begin? We started our friendship in kindergarten, just crazy kids at St Attracta. We kept in touch through high school and beyond. I'll never forget just sitting in your backyard in Westchester having our own "happy hour" or 3 talking about your garden, your dog and your love for your Mom and Johnny. Rest In Peace dear friend. Prayers for your family and Wally as they now live day to day without you

Danny while I only knew you a few years & unfortunately they were after you become ill I know you were a great brother and overall great person. Even though you couldn't communicate you were able to always make your mom, Rena, and the rest of us smile with your kisses and jesters. Though the years I heard many stories of all the wonderful things you did for everyone and I want to especially thank you for all the wonderful things you did for Rena & Mom. I wish I knew you 10 or 20 years ago for I know we would have been great friends but I will forever treasure the stories that everyone shares about you. Rest In Peace Danny and tell Mom & Dad that I will do my best to take care of Queen Rena.

Dan! Dan! Dan! You always made me smile. You never followed instructions to the letter but you got the job done. Your viewpoint and sense of humor were always spot on. I am saddened that you have left us so soon. I am honored and privileged to have been a friend of yours. Long after our careers moved us apart we remained in touch. We played a lot of phone tag but it was a worthy game. I wish we had more time together but am so thankful for all we shared. Bless you and that infinite loving heart you shared with all of us. Prayers to your family that you definetely loved and cherished immensely.

From the summer days at Parkholme pool, you've always made smiling a priority. You gave us lifeguards a fair bit of trouble sometimes but the laughs far outnumbered them. God speed Danny.
