    Dan was a great friend during my time in Clinton County. He and Kay were great encouragers. I really enjoyed our conversations during camp and at church! May God comfort the family in this season!

    I will miss Dan’s smile and helping heart. He ran so many shuttle runs to the airport and back for the FLAME events in Frankfort. He was a servant of God.

    I have known Danny since we were growing up attending the Christian Holiness Church in Cyclone many years ago. Danny was a good and kind person, and I am glad that I was fortunate enough to have known him as a friend. He will be sadly missed by many more than you will ever know, and I am so sorry for your loss. My condolences to the family.
