I met Daniel at the Cowboy Palace.   He was always so cheerful and kind. No matter what kind of day you were having, seeing his face when I walked in made it better. He’d offer a warm greeting or a joke to make me laugh. You could tell Daniel loved being there. He had a way of making everyone feel like they belonged, his cheeky smile is something I won’t forget.  It’s hard to believe he’s gone and I would like to offer my most sincere condolences to the family.

Daniel, may you Rest In Peace.
You were always a beacon of joy, your friendship meant so much to all of us who knew you.From the first time we met you made me appreciate your friendship you were there for me so many times over the year's I can't thank you enough, you used to help me bug the crap out of Joe during the football and helped me pick my teams when I wasn't sure. When Raffi was out of the country you always told him dont worry you have my back. Now your looking down on us together and supporting us from above. Your smile was contagious..we will miss you until we meet again.. soar high above and you will always be in our hearts and their you shall remain.. you are on the other side of the Veil but we will never forget you xx deepest sympathy to your family from your friend from Cowboy Palace xx

He went to go sit on the chair and went right through it lol

Always though those glasses looked so handsome on him

Dear Hadaway Family,

I want to express my heartfelt condolences during this difficult time. Daniel was a genuine person who cherished his family above all else. He often spoke of them with great affection, and it was clear that his parents were his top priority, even before work, the gym, or meeting friends.

I still remember the day I met Daniel; he approached me to introduce himself and friends he was with, which was so typical of him. He had a way of making everyone feel included, often re-introducing multiple times for good measure. His warmth and humor were infectious; he would compliment you and follow it up with a cheeky jab that always got a laugh, even if it was just from him. His laughter was contagious, encouraging everyone around him to join in.

Daniel was my go-to guy whenever I needed help with a project. He always delivered, though he had his quirks—his Starbucks and Western Bagel habit before starting work, and his constant chatter about lunch just a few hours in. During our days together, I had the privilege of hearing many of his life stories, and we became good friends. His company was always entertaining; it was common for him to stay for dinner and play cards, as long as it wasn’t before the gym and shower.

You could always count on him to be in his jeans and a button-up or flannel. His passion for the Kansas City Chiefs was unmatched and admired his dedication. Patrick Mahomes was his guy, and he always loved to rub it in when they won. Daniel had an impressive depth of knowledge about football; I often told him he should have been an NFL commentator—he was that good!

Every time the Chiefs play, I will think of him and, of course, I will hope they lose. I’ll remember him when I see Costco flannels, cooking a ribeye steak, or when I hear “Best Day Ever!” He was a creature of habit, and most importantly, he was a genuine, funny guy, or proud to be the annoying guy. He will be deeply missed by many. 

BEST DANIEL EVER!!!

Daniel was a great friend and a pleasure to know. From the first time we met 10yrs ago, we both knew we’d be good friends.  He was a natural people person. Danny could talk to anyone about anything. Quite the ladies man as well. The handsome devil could charm the coldest hearts. Needless to say Danny knew lots of great people & if Danny liked them, most likely you would like them too. Rockie, myself & many others will miss his laughter and camaraderie.  Love & miss you brother!

I was so sad to hear of my buddy's passing.  We had many good times just hanging out.  He had the best smile and laugh.  One time I commented on a cool shirt he was wearing.  He took it off and gave it to me.  Literally gave me the shirt off his back.  That's my pal.  I'll think about him every time I wear it, and remember our talks when I used to drive him home.  I'll miss you my friend.  🧡
