A friend is like a candle. A source of light and warmth, a comfort against the night. A beacon to find your way out of the dark. I light this candle to my friend, Dan.

I remember helping Danny deliver newspapers before the sun came up when we were kids and my family was visiting our cousins in Florida.

So sorry to hear of Danny's passing. I have such great memories when our families were together, from the times we went fishing at Sebastian's Inlet to boating and swimming at Lake Pine. Danny was so full of life. And life back then seemed so simple. And like Aunt Janie said, we can find peace knowing he no longer struggles and is with Uncle Bill. XXOOX
