Although I had not seen Daniel in quite awhile, Daniel was a straight shooter, no-nonsense man but a great friend & co-worker. In his New York Accent, always encouraging me when times were tough but I was happy to call him a good friend & he was always a very reliable co worker

I remember Danny very well. Back in the mid-70s I was a mail handler group leader. Dan worked in the registry room. I could always count on him to get the mail out to me on time and ready to roll. I was in my mid 20s then and to be honest I thought he was a little rough around the edges. When I got to know him I realized what a good man he really was. I recall when his wife passed away how devastated he was, and rightfully so. My condolences go out to his family, may he rest in peace.
