You were the only that had faith in the short kid when you coached me in poteau parc #32 A.j Martinez 3rd and 4th grade cowboys you made me a legend in the parc in my 2 year which would be 4th grade against the white and black team patriots I made every tackle I made every yard of offense and touch downs and I made them never gain one yard. I did it all through the same hole and you had me plying nosegaurd your help moved me to a perfect game. Thank you I'll always love you Coach Martinez.

Danny although my thoughts are being posted here a day after the tenth year after your death, I can assure you that you are not forgotten. I think of you daily, sometimes several times a day You are a hero and I do mean a HERO ! You.undubtedly saved several lives the night you gave your life to protect and save the lives of the other innocent people at that house. I will undoubtedly regret for the rest of my life not getting to you quicker than I did ! I don't know if I had gotten there sooner if it would have made a difference, but Billy, who was driving right in front of me me and I promise you we we going as fast as possible but that wasn't fast enough ! You will never be forgotten and will always be a HERO ! Rest in peace my brother !

Danny, it's hard to believe it's been 8 years already. It seems like just yesterday, and not a day goes by that I don't think of you. You must be pleased to know how many lives you have touched since that fateful day that you made the ultimate sacrifice. Your tour of duty is over, but you will never be forgotten. Rest well, my friend.
