Danny loved to read and had a great passion for deer hunting. He graduated from Epps High School earning a 4 year scholarship to McNeese University. But the draft took him in another direction. He was very proud to serve in the U.S. Army. He served in Vietnam for 9 years as the fieldline Communicater. He received 2 Bronze stars, Clusters, V., Stars, 2 Army Commendation Medals with Bronze Clusters for each level. Danny progressed and was awarded many medals. He always served with honor and dignity. After leaving the Army, he started working in the Pasadena Paper Mill in Pasadena, TX for over 30 years. He made a lot of great friends and taught most how to deer hunt, too. They really enjoyed being his brothers in God.
