My most heartfelt condolences on the loss of your son?

Danny had a pure heart that brought joy to all he did, especially when he was a GiGi's. I couldn't find a picture where he wasn't surrounded by our participants and grinning smiling from ear to ear. He will be missed by everyone.

Danny was always this big goofball. I remember when Geegee and I were younger, we just got these bean bag chairs. Well, Danny, Justin, Gee and I were hanging out in the basement of course they boys had to start rough housing. They broke the chairs. Gee and I never lived it down. And to this day Danny would say “nooo I didn’t break them.” I think another memory that always sticks is almost every Sunday the whole family would go to grandma and grandpas house. We would go on the boat, hangout, eat… a lot, and of course go crabbing. But EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. we were on the boat, Danny had to full moon us. It would drive aunt Denise crazy but it made everyone laugh. He was so full of life and he is going to be missed so much by so many people, including me. I’ll miss you cuz <3
