    Dad– You will be deeply missed by your family and your many friends. You fought hard until the end and we would not have expected anything less from you, a proud and faithful Marine. Semper Fi Dad.

    So very sorry to hear of Danny’s passing. He was a helluva guy and such a good friend to Lou.

    Our paths didn’t cross on a daily basis, when they did, it was truly enjoyable. Go be with God, Dan. Semper Fi.
