Danny and I first met in 2004, shortly after I became the owner of Club DJ's. After work one evening, Danny invited me to join them at their table to have a drink. From that point on, our friendship continued to grow. In conversation I heard so much about his work and especially his family in which he had so much pride. I also heard great things about a girl named Shelly who he was so much in love with. I eventually met Shelly and found she was exactly as he described and I was honored to attend their wedding. Danny and I became very close. There are two words best to describe him- Friend and Genuine. He will be missed!

My name is Murray S. Moffat. When I got word of Danny's passing, I immediately went into a state of total disbelief. Not Danny I kept telling myself, but it didn't help.

From that point on, our friendship continued to grow. In conversation I heard so much about his work and especially his family in which he had so much pride. I also was hearing about a girl named Shelly who he was totally smittened by and so much in love. I eventually met Shelly and found her to be just as he described. I was so honored to attend their wedding in Oatman, Nevada. Dany and I became very close. There are two words I would use to best describe him. Friend and Genuine. He will be missed!

I'll never forget that laugh. You could hear it on the job over the noise. We sure put down some miles. What a long strange trip it was. No matter what, we'll always have Wendover! I hope that in heaven there's a Jack Martinez Dart board. I'll know where to find Louie!

Wendy, Julie & Aunt Shelly,

We are heartbroken Uncle Danny joined my Dad along with Grandma and Grandpa Lujan, but Heaven got good one! He was a great guy and the life of every party! I can hear his one of a kind voice right now, "Geez Little Lar. When are those damn kids gonna stop growing?" Then he´d smile and laugh. That laugh!!! If you were around Uncle Danny you damn sure were laughing.

Take solace in the fact that He is now free of the physical burden that plagued him the last little while. We will continue to pray for y´all! Love and miss you-

Larry Jr, T, Bella & Larry III

Danny you'll be truly missed, dear friend. You were always so happy, fun to be around and had the best stories. Your laughter was contagious to everyone around you. You made everyone at Valley feel special and included as family, even myself. Hugs and loves to Shelley and the family, fly high Danny.
