My heart is aching over the grief the family of Danny Osborne are feeling at this time. Prayers for comfort go out to all of you.
He was one of my all time favorite Railroad Engineers at Rougemere. Can't say enough about Mr Osborne. Nice, helpful, funny, one of a kind person that made my day brighter everytime we interacted at work. I've known "Ozzy" for 3 years. He could have me cracking up within minutes on my worse work day. Always an honor to drive him back to Wallbridge so he could get home to his family as he got comfy in the 3rd row of my van and always fell asleep.
Last month was the last time I drove Ozzy back to Wallbridge, he actually stayed awake and we had a very nice conversation. His encouraging words are forever etched in my mind. I have so many memories that won't be fogotten, Thanks Danny for them all.
Our loss is Heaven's gain.
