Daniel was a devoted man of faith whose life was guided by his love for God, his family, and his community. A proud retired officer of the Edinburg Police Department, he served with honor, integrity, and a deep sense of duty. Outside of his years in uniform, Daniel found peace in the outdoors, especially while hunting, where he felt most connected to nature. He was a loyal fan of the Dallas Cowboys, rarely missing a game and always cheering them on with passion. Daniel will be remembered for his strength, his faith, and the steady presence he brought to those who knew and loved him.
