I will miss you Danny. I am so sad and sorry that I didn’t get a chance to say goodbye. Although I knew you since I was very young, I never got to have a deep conversation with you or spend a lot of time with you. I will always remember you as tough guy with a kind and caring heart. I will miss you very much, my dear cousin. Rest in peace.
