You and I were very close when you were a child. You were a delight to raise. I loved you for your many enduring qualities. Your truthfulness, honesty, and respect for others made you a delightful person to be with.
Your bubbly personality, genuine love of life and the great outdoors made you fun to go places with. I remember the many camping trips up in Willits, Ca where we hunted and fished. They were some of my favorite times. Your love of camping and fishing is widely known. You enjoyed the outdoors so much.
You were a sensitive person caring about many things.. You left this world far too young.
You will be missed greatly by so many but especially by me. You will always be loved and have a place in my heart. Rest in Peace Danny.

I remember hiking around Redwood Estates and opening presents by a pot belly stove on Christmas Eve at your Grandparents house. You were always laughing and full of energy, with those wild eyes smiling. I wish that I could of known you as a man, as I believe we shared many interests. I do know that you are loved and will be missed. Your cousin Bill

You were always there to help, but you always ensured that my family and I were safe. You had a kind heart and always a story to tell, and or a small fowl to share. My plants are still hanging on in those wooden boxes. Dann, wherever you are may you find happiness and peace. Joyce and family my prayers are with you.
