Danny,
Where do I begin and how do I capture all of you in this memory. My heart has an empty piece missing since you were taken from us. I love you lil’ man and miss you every minute. I constantly hear your laugh and you saying “Pops, its fire!” I miss our father and son “tap out” matches and to this day, Dad reigns CHAMP! Whenever I just needed a good laugh, I could call you and you would cheer me up. Now when I need you, I look up and ask for guidance in the hopes that my mom and dad are besides you and you are making new memories. You will be happy to hear that Slim and I have become pretty close. Even though our relationship was from afar, you were my best friend. Every day when listening to the songs that we shared to capture our relationship, the one that hits home the most is from one of our favorite movies, Fast and Furious 7, when Dom and Brian go their separate directions knowing they will see each other again soon enough. The first note of this song brings me to tears knowing how true these words are:
"It's been a long day without you, my friend
And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
We've come a long way from where we began
Oh, I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
When I see you again
Damn, who knew?
All the planes we flew, good things we been through
That I'd be standing right here talking to you
'Bout another path, I know we loved to hit the road and laugh
But something told me that it wouldn't last
Had to switch up, look at things different, see the bigger picture
Those were the days, hard work forever pays
Now I see you in a better place (see you in a better place)
Uh
When I see you again"
-Wiz Khalifa
I love you pimp and think of you every day and visit you just as often. I am not ok that you will never come back to me but what holds me together is the fact we will be together again when the time is right.
Love,
Dad

Rest in peace Danny Boy, Daniel, Dan. You had so many nicknames. I will keep blasting your old favorite song hoping you hear it from up there! Keep smiling down on us all with your shining smile Dan! You are so missed by so many. This is so unfair.

Danny and I had only met about 7-8 months ago, and just in that short amount of time he had such a big impact and became one of my best friends and someone I would talk to on the daily. I am so grateful I even got to know you. Something I will never forget is how big his heart was and how safe I felt in his presence and speaking to him about anything. He had the most infectious laugh and smile that could brighten the darkest room. I miss getting my daily memes on insta, I miss getting the snap of showing me your new shoes, talking about our girl Coi, I miss kicking it watching football with you, and I will forever wish we had more time to make more memories. I will forever wish you had more days in this world because it's not the same without you. We will continue to share stories and remember you for the amazing man you were, until we see you again. Love and miss you forever Danny.

I can’t believe it’s been a month, since we last spoke to each other bro. It’s hard being here in this world without you, feel as if we kept each other going in times when we needed each other most. And in the last month it’s been a hard time without you here, wish I could call you at any given second or FaceTime you. Or even go over to your apartment and see you, I miss you man. It’s hard seeing everyone hurt the way they are and especially feel the hurt I feel every single day. There’s not a moment I don’t think about you , or what happened.. you wouldn’t have wanted to leave this world , you had so much more life to live! Makes me angry… I love you bro and it’s not goodbye it’s see you later.. as always you’re my best friend forever, my dawg for life. And it’ll forever be Big Slim and Danny Phantom :(

Daniel, Although I didn't get as much time to spend with you as I would have liked, what I will remember most was our car ride conversations. You always had interesting stories to tell, and you were always interested in mine, "pèpè was a badass" was my
favorite respons you had to one of my crazy stories. I loved your amazing sense of humor, and your big hugs. You will be missed immensely by so many.
Love always,

Growing up with you made some memories I'll always cherish. From roaming around Brewer Megan You and I, to the playland adventures, to owning our neighborhood and stealing my baby brothers fourwheeler and almost breaking it! I'll never forget your goofy self! You ALWAYS managed to put a smile on anyones face no matter what kind of day they were having, you'll be missed so much Danny Boy! Love you, fly high!

It was July, you were wearing a pirate costume and demonstrating your “pirate skills” in your Mom’s living room. We watched with amusement and adoration and every time we would try to speak you shouted, “quiet peasants!”
Always happy.
Rest easy sweet boy❤️

My sweet sweet boy...there is not one memory to share, there are 24 years worth of memories. We always had each others back, celebrated each others milestones, and we raised each other. You taught me as many life lessons as I hope I taught you. I know you would never have wanted to leave me, and I could really use one of your super tight hugs right now. I will miss you for my whole life, and you are always in my heart. I will still have your back in this life and the next.
It's been a long day without you, my friend
And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
We've come a long way from where we began
Oh, I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
When I see you again
Damn, who knew?
All the planes we flew, good things we been through
That I'd be standing right here talking to you
'Bout another path, I know we loved to hit the road and laugh
But something told me that it wouldn't last
Had to switch up, look at things different, see the bigger picture
Those were the days, hard work forever pays
Now I see you in a better place (see you in a better place)
Uh
How can we not talk about family when family's all that we got?
Everything I went through, you were standing there by my side
And now you gon' be with me for the last ride
It's been a long day without you, my friend
And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again (I'll see you again)
We've come a long way (yeah, we came a long way)
From where we began (you know we started)
Oh, I'll tell you all about it when I see you again (I'll tell you)
When I see you again
First, you both go out your way and the vibe is feeling strong
And what's small turned to a friendship, a friendship turned to a bond
And that bond will never be broken, the love will never get lost
(The love will never get lost)
And when brotherhood come first, then the line will never be crossed
Established it on our own when that line had to be drawn
And that line is what we reached, so remember me when I'm gone
(Remember me when I'm gone)
How can we not talk about family when family's all that we got?
Everything I went through you were standing there by my side
And now you gon' be with me for the last ride
So let the light guide your way, yeah
Hold every memory as you go
And every road you take
Will always lead you home, home
It's been a long day without you, my friend
And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
We've come a long way from where we began
Oh, I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
When I see you again
When I see you again (yeah, uh)
See you again (yeah, yeah, yeah)
When I see you again

The thing i will miss most about dan was his ability to make everyday better. I remember telling him that he had to come over to my sisters house for my birthday. He partied with me all night, he played all my favorite songs, he told me “this is going to be your best year yet!” As it now seems like the worst year ever, im so happy to be able to say dan was my best friend. I need you more than ever dan, and i promise to chose you in every lifetime. I hope you know how missed you are. I am beyond thankful for every moment i had with you. I would do anything to have you here. LLD❤️

No amount of words can describe what we are all feeling. The laughter the joking around the quoting of our favorite TV shows the snowy afternoon rips on the trails doing things with me that you don't like to do but you did them anyway because that's who you are. I'm going to miss all the things you used to bring to me to fix because your favorite saying is "Mose can fix anything" . Unfortunately Danny Boy I can't fix everything and would give anything to have the power to fix everything. Fly high my sweet Danny Boy I can't wait to see you again I love you bud.

No parent should ever have to lose a child. Our hearts are with you during this time.
My memory of Daniel was fishing with him and Cloey in the gulf of Mexico and the two of them catching mostly catfish.
I was struck by how close they were. Most siblings would probably bicker and there may have been some of that but they had each other's backs. They shared a respect for each other and enjoyed each other's company. I remember Dan helping Cloey bait her hook. They were around ages 14 and 12.
At the end of the day we went to Tom Thumb and bought huge cotton candy slurpies and I remember the two of them bantering back and forth on the ride home about slurping (of course you slurp slurpies), there time fishing and what they planned to do when they got home--i think play video games.
Cloey is going to miss her big brother and I know she will cherish the memories she has of him.
Thank you for posting the video tribute. It captured the essence of your family and of your love for Daniel and your love for each other. That love will sustain you during your loss. Keep doing the things strengthen it-- going on adventures, sharing your artistic talents, and singing your hearts away.

Danny is how you were introduced to me by your Dad and Danny is how I will always remember you. I tried to find an old photo that represented the good looking charismatic young man with a mohawk, but I could not. I am very sad that you are not here in this place with us anymore, sad how all this happened, sad for all the people that love you and will miss you dearly. You left your mark on this place through everyone who knew you and as long as we are all here we will talk about you fondly and tell stories that will make us smile, but miss you more. Rest in Peace Danny! Until we meet again!

Man I really can't get over you being gone.. but I refuse to let these tears be in vain. I'll forever remember you for your bright beautiful smile. Not to mention how kind and brutally honest you were. I really will never forget our long talks or late night hangouts, Ill keep smiling at the memories we made over the past 3 years and hold onto them tight. Even if times were rough, we always made up with each other in the end, no matter what. I miss you Danny, and I'll never forget our friendship. May you rest easy now, we will meet again.

It’s impossible to pinpoint one single memory when you’re all I knew - you became my very first best friend, then you and Jordan became my biggest pains, but it was always the three of us - from the costumes & cowboy boots to the young man you became, you always made sure we all knew how much you loved us. We will make the “mum give me a good kiss” joke forever, because truly nothing showed how much you loved, better than that. We love you bud.

A special boy, my first boyfriend, someone who holds a very special place in my heart. You heart never changed and you loved the people around you with passion. You always called the Mac and cheese my mom made “pink Mac and cheese” because of the red hot dogs, mom made it other day and it was pinkest it’s ever been. I’ll never forget your laugh, or when you would never and never did call my mom by her first name. Or how you feel would say “hush mode” when you were right, hush mode is still said around the house btw. Your chickens you had at your house that chased me up the stairs are the reason I have a fear of them now, but you thought it was funny. So many memories, and I’m forever grateful that I’ll have them forever, I just wish I could make more with you. Thank you for everything, I’ll miss you forever n a day. Till we meet again, because this is never goodbye.

We're in Shannon's car, the little black one. Shannon is driving. We're on our way to Harrison's 4th (I think) Birthday party in Newport. My son, Aiden, who is about 6, and Daniel, who is about 10 are in the back, and we're headed out of Bangor, driving by the Paul Bunyan statue. Aiden, who wants so badly to impress Daniel, points to the statue and says, "Oh! I learned about that guy! That's the Bald Onion! He got famous for chopping trees!" We all laughed so hard!!

Dan we had so much fun together man. It’s hard for me to even get myself to write this. I can’t believe you’re gone.. you always made me laugh so damn hard bro, and when we both got going together, we could’ve laughed for days.
I’ll never forget when you came to the Red Sox World Series parade with me, even after they beat your team, the Dodgers! Lol bro you were so real for that.
Your positivity and kindness mixed with a massive heart is how I’ll remember you. We met in grade school and became closer almost every year of our lives. You kept in touch with me when I was out of state for awhile, that meant a lot. I’ll always remember our Kevin Durant and Steph Curry debates. Our amazing madden games that ended in fights. Our countless nights at the airport where we became best friends. Man this sucks. Love you and miss you Daniel. I’m sorry this happened to you.

He introduced you to me at a friday night car meet and i just remember not being able to contain my thoughts which were “ holy crap you look just like your dad” i didn’t have the pleasure of knowing you very long but i did get to see alot in that short time . I remember giving you what i believe was your first kitchen job and you were a natural and excelled very quickly . I believe that probably was true with anything you set your mind to in life . You were always a great kid to have around ,you were always smiling and having a good time with whatever you were doing. You will truly be missed by many brother. My love and prayers are with the your family and i know youre up there smiling and laughing like you always were anytime i saw you.
