Danny enjoyed talking to people. He never met a stranger. He enjoyed farming and being a shade tree mechanic. He loved those old Ford 4000 tractors and raking hay. If he was on the tractor and had Pepsi he was good to go. He defied the odds in life. Doctors said he would never walk. He proved them wrong many times. He walked, rode horses, drove tractors, trucks, and lawn mowers. It was amazing the strength he had in his arms and hands. He always had a "fixer" mentality and saw the value in spare parts to repair and "improve" stuff. He would take apart and put together all sorts of things. He always remembered birthdays and special holidays by calling and extending best wishes. He was a member of Mt. Olive Baptist Church.
Graveside service will be at 10:00am on Saturday, August 26, 2023 at Copperas Springs Cemetery.

If I knew about Danny's passing I forgot it. I was in rehab in March 2023 was the last time I visited with him. He was a friend since September of 1961 when I started 1st grade with his brother.
He loved the ice and snow, he would take his tractor out and pull people up the hills. I was sorry to hear of his passing.
