Sandy G. lit a candle

“Uncle Danny was a true gentleman who always knew how to bring a smile & a chuckle your way. He was not just good to some, but to all--a rare quality. I’ll always treasure the happy memories from as far back as the cookouts on Pond St., all the way up to & as recent as his & Aunt Connie’s 60th wedding anniversary. Together they brought so many joyful memories & I’ll be eternally grateful for that. A dear, sweet couple that were an inspiration to all! Uncle Danny will be missed beyond measure.”

“A whole lifetime of happy memories are what I have of Uncle Danny. I always looked forward to seeing him at family get-togethers. His kind personality never changed throughout all those years that I knew him, & he was the BEST uncle a person could ever have. He will forever have a very special place in my heart, & I will always love and miss the sweet, gentle man he truly was. God Bless Uncle Danny, & my deepest, deepest condolences to you, Auntie Connie, for your loss.”
