Danny was such a fun person to talk to and be around. And he was such a good cook. He would cook up a big pot of beans, fix some "sawdust" potatoes, and a big skillet of cornbread, and then he was call us over to the woodshop for lunch, no finer cooking than that! He loved to cook and share with everyone! And he would enjoy that, but I think we all enjoyed it more. He will truly be missed! A great friend! He will not be forgotten!
