Publish in a newspaper
Danny is survived by his daughter, Tara (Martin) OConnor of Grayslake; his brother, Samuel "Kell" Ritchie of Leatherwood, KY; and many nieces and nephews.
Danny was preceded in death by his mother; his son, Carl Wayne; brothers, Roger, Corbett, Oscar "Dell" and James; sisters, Bessie, Ruby, Dollie and Esther.
We like to think that since Danny has left this earth, he has been fishing the great lakes of paradise with his son, Carl. All arrangements were entrusted to Strang Funeral Chapel & Crematorium 410 E. Belvidere Rd. Grayslake, IL 60030. For more information log onto www.strangfuneral.org.
