In Loving Memory of Daniel Joseph Snitzky
Danny, a true protector in heart and soul, was a loving son, father, and friend. He was a dedicated Correctional Officer with the Texas Department of Criminal Justice since 2009. Danny passed away at his family's home leaving behind a legacy of strength, wisdom, creativity, and extraordinary kindness. He was more than a protector-he was a counselor, a confidant, and a source of light and strength for those fortunate enough to know him. Known for his quick wit, insight well beyond his years, and deeply caring nature, Danny had an unmatched ability to lift spirits, solve problems, and offer advice that truly made a difference. Danny always knew exactly what someone needed to hear-whether to ease pain, bring laughter, or offer guidance in life's most difficult moments.
A man of many talents, Danny was an extraordinary artist and musician. Creating beautiful works through many talents, he painted, drew, crafted leather, and played guitar beautifully-often by ear. His creativity extended into his love for strategic games and painting miniatures with incredible detail, always seeking to engage both mind and imagination. He thrived on intellectual challenges and never shied away from helping others face theirs.
Danny wore his heart openly. He loved deeply and spoke honestly, always making sure the people in his life and close to him knew how much they meant to him and that they mattered. His impact on the lives he touched will never be forgotten. He is mourned by many who loved him dearly, and he is survived by some who never had the chance to fully and truly know him, but he loved with all his heart.
Danny lived with courage through numerous medical issues that he bore with quiet strength. Though this world often felt too small for the depth of his soul, he has finally found peace beyond pain-a peace he so richly deserved.
He will be profoundly missed by all who knew and loved him, he will never be forgotten, and he will always be cherished. His absence leaves a space that can never be filled, but his memory will forever live on in the hearts he touched.
Rest easy, Danny. You are finally home.
