I wasn't fortunate to meet Danny prior to this tragedy. I have met Diana and Shelly since and I can tell from them that he will be greatly missed by all that knew him. Diana, my heart and prayers are with you and your family. This is such a difficult time and let me know if there is ANYTHING I can do. I am so sorry for your tremendous loss.
I only new Danny for a short time at the railroad, He was a good person to talk to. I always was asked and still asked, "are you two related?", I thank God for allowing me to cross his path in life. May He comfort you and your family in your loss. My prayers go out to you.
