In his time here with us he never had a shortage of friends or family who loved him. Daniel loved music and he knew how to make a party lively, he never refused a dance. He was the kind of man who would never back down, who would fight for someone he cared about. That meant that he sometimes became very stubborn about things, but at the end of the day he still cared. Daniel will be deeply missed by all who knew him, but his memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved him.
