I was home in MT a few weeks ago and one of my usual stops is at Danny’s house. Dad and I drove over, yes in ‘my car the ’65 Chevy’ to see him. Unfortunately Danny was not home. Then on Tuesday morning I was able to see him. I was waiting outside security at the airport, and Danny came out and we were able to catch up. When he headed back into the secure area, he said for me to stop by and he treated me to breakfast and coffee. This is just a typical ‘nice’ thing Danny would do. Thank you Danny for all you have done for me over the years. But more importantly thank you for all you have done for my parents. You were a good neighbor but a better friend. Teresa Friedsam

Pam,
We were so sorry to hear about Danny’s passing. It was quite a shock to us, as we had just seen you at the garage sale the week before.
I remember helping Danny get his job at the city, as I was street foreman at that time. Dan loved to plow snow and sweep streets, and he was very good at it. He was still with the city long after I retired.
Bless you Pam, and your family’s, Dan will not be forgotten. Our prayers go out to you.
