My dad, my heart,
Who had to part,
The pain, it’s no longer,
Fly away! Off there yonder,
The pain, has passed onto me,
My heart! I can no longer see,
But yes! You told me,
The love is there, unconditionally,
That we all must take this crazy path,
It is what it is, and that is that,
The pain will subside, one day I’ll see,
That the love that was left, unconditionally,
Will be wrapped up around me, until it’s my end,
Knowing one day, we’ll meet again…

A wonderful, kind person to all he met. I will miss you. Thank you for raising my best friend who has so many of your traits. All my love to your family and wife Heidi. The two of you had a real love built on friendship. The best kind. I will always reminisce on the laughter inside your home. I know you are shining down on those that love you with Hercules and Buster walking by your side. Xoxo
How lucky we are to have someone so special for all of these years that it is so hard to say goodbye. You were the most brilliant and thoughtful Uncle a gal could ever had asked for. I am so grateful for all of the years and especially the last 3 weeks we spent together even though the circumstances were not the best. I will miss our talks! Until we meet again Danny. I love and miss you!
