Carrie Taft says
Dad,
Zak, Trent and I will always have such great memories of you. You were taken away from us without any notice and I know you are no longer in pain and you are walking tall again.
But I need to know, who will clean my fish after I catch them? I guess I will have to watch the videos I took of you doing that.
Thank you for loving my mother and loving me and my sons.
I will miss you so much and my mom has been surrounded by so many people that love the both of you.
I LOVE YOU Dad and life won’t be the same without you in it.

We were so heartbroken and shocked to hear about our friend Danny’s passing. He was a great guy and we always enjoyed swapping Brewers/Cardinals comments and bragging rights! Words cannot express what our friendship with Danny and Joy has meant to us. We love them both and will miss Danny so much. Healing hugs and prayers go out to Joy and all the family.

I was so sorry to hear about Danny’s passing. Very fun loving guy. Enjoyed working with him and playing with him in our golf league. Even after Danny moved we still affectionally called the area on the sixth hole at Pets golf course Danny’s Ravine.
To Joy and family you have my deepest sympathy. We will keep you all in our thoughts and prayers.

I love you Grandpa 🩷
