Another year has passed Danny… a year of many changes in all of our lives… as I sit here this morning at 6am and reflect on our friendship, my heart breaks over and over again… time does not heal my friend, it only passes by… Thinking of you today Danny and again thanking our Lord for the brief time we had together… Love you Danny…

Love,

It's that time of year Danny... I think about you all year long but December, well, it's the toughest month as I remember your sacrifice. I have you and your memory in my home office where I work every day, so I reflect on your life quite often. I miss you, we all do, but you know that. My faith has become so much stronger the past few years, losing those you love will do that I suppose.

By now you've no doubt met my son, and you and Tony have celebrated a reunion with Leonard. I am so thankful for God's love and grace so that we can all be together again. I often think about how lucky I am to have known you, both on the job and off. You were special Danny, to all of us. I don't know why God's plan was for you to go home so soon, but it sure broke our hearts. I haven't seen your dad for quite some time now, but I'm sure you're watching over him.

I miss you Danny... always will... you were one of the best... God gave you the heart of a warrior, a servant's heart, a heart of gold... you enriched the lives of everyone around you, you certainly enriched mine. As painful as it is to remember that horrible day, I feel blessed to have been your friend. I'll never forget you, always love you, and will always thank Jesus for allowing me to be part of your life for a while. It truly blessed me.

Love,
Shirl

Hey Dan,
I know you are doing well and just wanted to say hi. I miss you brother. I wish you were here and we could swap some recent stories but I am also happy that you are not having to deal with the things that have been happening recently. See you on the flip side brother.

Another year has passed Danny and the pain of losing you still feels the same. You're often in my thoughts since my office is decorated in all my law enforcement stuff and you and Tony are right there where I can see your picture and think of you every single day. Leonard has been there with you guys for almost 2 years now, yet, it seems like yesterday that he was here teasing me about something and being his silly self. My son has been there almost 4 years, no doubt by now he has met you guys and has become part of the brotherhood... I miss you all so much, some days are almost unbearable, but I know a day will come that we will celebrate an awesome reunion! Tomorrow is the anniversary of losing you, it's always a tough day. Love you buddy, miss you terribly! Give the boys a big hug for me... Until we meet again...

Love, Shirl

Danny... I was going through some old pictures yesterday and found another one of you at that backyard bbq you had... it made me think back on the good times we all had when we got together off-duty... then I got to thinking about your ID theft case that I worked... we made some fun times out of that mess didn't we? Leonard has joined you and Tony in heaven now... it's hard for me to even comprehend that the three of you are there when you should all be here... but I guess God had other plans... miss you buddy, my heart aches for you often...

Love,

Not a day goes by Danny that I don't think about you and remember your sacrifice... I saw a photo of you recently that I had not seen before but your smile was the same one I'd seen a thousand times... I know I will see you again but my heart still breaks as I think back on all the great moments with you... Miss you buddy... xoxo
