Sharon, I apologize that I’m late with a comment. I only found out today that Danny had passed. We had a great friendship for many, many years both in the auto parts business as well as our years of girls softball teams. I was always glad whenever I saw Danny show up either at a game or as a parts salesman. Danny was a great guy as you well know and will be sorely missed. I pray for your comfort at this time. Your memories will always be there with you to remember all the good times and to encourage you. May God bless you and your extended family during this time. I’m truly sorry for your loss.

Sharon-
Sally and I extend to you and your family our condolences to you and your family.
I miss the good ole days of federal court practice in Judge Robinson’s court because of your smiling face and gracious help to lawyers appearing in court during the 70’s and 80’s.
If there is anything I can do to be of help to you in the days ahead, please let me know.
