I will miss you dear brother. You were always so loving toward me I still can’t accept you’re gone. Rest In Peace with the rest of the family until we meet again.
Danny turned me to the music from the 70’s. I became of fan of bands like Pink Floyd (his favorite band), Led Zeppelin and Rush because of him. He was also my go to when I had questions about cooking out.
Danny boy you were like my own little brother. I first met you when you were 10 years old and watched you grow into manhood. Yoli and I grew to be quite fond of you because you were always the baby of the family. I know you were a special little brother to Yoli and she will have a void in her life which only you could fill. We are going to miss the delicious barbecued fajitas, pork ribs, and fried shrimp you used to cook for everybody at family get togethers and of course the companionship at the backyard picnic table. May you be in everlasting peace now that you are reunited with Jerry, Joseph, Richard, Nana, Tata, tio David, and the rest of the family. With heartfelt sadness I bid you farewell cunado!
I’m so so sorry for your loss, but there will be things that trigger tears, and tears that bring laughter, things that you don’t expect.. but they’ll gently remind you of all the wonderful details that made life with your love one, he was a gift to your parents, sisters, and brothers. Such a precious gift.
My condolences to the Doria family. I’m so sorry for your loss. Danny was always friendly and nice to me whenever we would run into each other at the office supply store. Always had a beautiful smile. Rest in Peace.
I just did a search for you and found this. For several years you were the closest I’ve ever had to a best friend. I remember hanging out in the parking lot at Texas A&I in Kingsville. I remember when you went into the army and when you came back. I remember getting arrested for DWI in front of your house. I was with you the last time I “partied.” This is sad.
