We were childhood friends. Met Danny at his cousin Ralph Ayles house when I was in the 5 grade.

Danny was my father n law. My husband Shawn and I only had about 2 and a half years to knoe him. I found him on facebook for my husband and they were both so happy to meet for the very first time. The resemblence was breath taking. He maintained contact with us just until his passing. We are so saddened by his passing we were getting close to coming for a family visit which wasn’t soon enough. We will be at the memorial on monday to see him laid to rest and pay amidge to a great war hero and a father. God speed Danny..look for me when I get to heaven. I will never forget the hours of spritual talks we had about how much you loved the Lord.
