Danny was a former client of Jonesboro Human Development Center, where he made lasting connections and touched the lives of many who cared for him.

The family extends heartfelt gratitude to the staff at Achieve Community Alliance for their dedication and kindness in caring for Danny.

I am a friend of Betty! I knew him! Been over her house many times with my Mom Ava Wilcockson many times. She loved him so much. Always going to see him when she could. My condolences to the family. He's with Betty now!
