Danny was a beloved custodian at East Bernstadt Elementary School where he left behind a legacy of hard work, kindness, and dedication.

His warmth and smile will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

In his free time, Danny enjoyed the simple pleasures of life. He loved spending quiet mornings fishing and afternoons practicing target shooting, but what he cherished most was the time he spent with his family. His love for his family was the center of his world, and he never missed an opportunity to create lasting memories with them.

A man of faith, Danny was a devoted member of his church and found great joy in his worship. His strong beliefs and kind spirit were felt by everyone around him.

Danny's life was one of service, love, and faith. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, colleagues, and all those whose lives he touched.
