Danford Family,
Please accept my condolences on your recent death. I was Marlin's kindergarten teacher at Melrose Elementary and have a special place in my heart for him. When I saw of the recent passing I wanted your family to know Mr. Danford's circle of lives touched directly or indirectly was very wide. Marlin, make him proud. There are people out here cheering for you to be a good man as your father did in his heart. Sincerely, Mrs. Hanson
