Daniel, tomorrow is your Birthday. You would be 24 years old. I just want to let you know that I love and miss you SO much! Your family and friends are still thinking about you every day. We are doing our best to go on without you. Jon and I are just so lost-so empty and sad without you here. You are and always will be our hero. And to the administrator of this page, be it Mr. Baraclough or someone else, thank you. Thank you for acknowledging my son. He would be so proud of this page!
Danny, I know that you are still with us. Cory and I were talking about you yesterday, as it was your Birthday. Happy Birthday Danny. We love and miss you.
