He also enjoyed being in the Lord’s service each and every day and was a member of a Missionary Baptist Church. Danny was an avid Razorback fan. Danny acquired polio around age two (2), but never let it define him. He continued life with a strength and a fierce combative nature that was unmatched. His unyielding ability to fight and never surrender, bode him well as he fought hard in his final days to be with family.
