Gail and Chase Family,

I am truly sorry to hear about your loss. I used to work with Danny at the VFW. Danny trained me how to bartend and as nervous as I was he sure made me feel at ease. He was always such a nice guy and had such a wonderful sense of humor! I will always remember him and think of him fondly.

My thoughts go out to you and your family at this hard time.

I was as stunned as you were to hear of Danny's passing. My mind was flooded with all the adventures we shared working at "Watt's". I'll always remember Danny with a big smile on his face and the funny times he would look at me through that paint mask.
When we lose a loved one we feel a hole in our heart that time trys to fill in. They say time heals all wounds but I have found that not to be true. The hole gets filled in with the good memories and the continued love we have for them, that never goes away. Danny will always be in all our minds and heart.
I lifted your family up for prayer at our church today. I pray the Lord will comfort each of you.
May the Lord bless you.

Dear Nancy, Gail and Family,

I am so sorry for the loss of your brother. I've been where you are just 2 weeks ago when I lost my husband. It astonishes me to know how many of us this year have lost people very close to us. It also amazes me how we are all connected. We've worked for the same places. We know each others' families. We're familiar with each others' pain. I hope God will console you and your family and take Danny home in peace.

God bless you,
Belinda
