Dear Fitzwater Family-Coach Berry is my brother-in-law. We are deeply saddened by the tragic loss of such a great young man. His sister's poignant words are indicative of a life well lived with a firm foundation in our Lord and Savior. May your sorrow turn to joy as you recount all the ways Daniel worked daily for the Kingdom during his short time on Earth. He certainly lived "the dash". In his words-the most important time. God love you and bless you until you meet again. Forever touched-Kimberly Pace
