JNS January 8, 2023, 2:43 am My thoughts are with you all Jane. I remember well babysitting Danny, Tony, Lisa and Susan. Blessings to all of you, keeping the memories of Danny in your heart and sharing those when you gather together will keep his spirit with you. I knew him as a very little boy with an infectious grin wanting to do what ever Tony was doing. Joyce Nelson Shellhart
