Daniel had a heart of gold. He went to school junior high with my son Michael and also to high school with Michael and they were the best of friends he spent so much time at my house. I fed him many many days and nights. He became my third son. Every time I was in the hospital I would wake up and Daniel would be sitting in a chair next to me when I went through my chemo treatments. I got so sick. I ended up on the floor and Daniel and Victor came through the door and called an ambulance for me. He was always there. I know I will miss him forever. Amber and Dax I love you very, very much. My heart is with both of you and with you, Kathi!

Always a memory to be made and a story to be told when he was around. 💔😢😞

KD, & family. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
