We got to talking about our cattle and haying. He really like to tell about the farm life. He and Jan came down to Marshall and we had a really great day talking about our lives and telling old story’s about the early days. He was a great person and will be greatly missed by all. He always called me Sidney and not Sid. With Our Love James Sidney and Lea Ann T. Lowrance

I am still trying to come to grips with this loss. My thoughts and prayers go out to you Jan and all the family. It was just recently that we were together laughing and talking about earlier years. We went to shoot my guns and I think he truly enjoyed it. You could tell his love of his grandson. I will miss him dearly. May God Bless him and watch over him. Rest in peace Danny. You were loved and will be missed.

Aunt Rachel, Jan, Krista and family, and cousin Linda: So thankful we spent some valuable time together at the reunion. Danny was his usual crazy self and I have always loved all my cousins. This year was even more special with all in attendance even Curt talking with all of us on the phone. Krista – although you were out of town, I sure enjoyed Danny’s grandsons. Take care of yourselves for each other. Love and prayers from my heart to yours.

I am so sorry to hear of Danny’s passing, it came at a great shock. He was my boss in the Deli at Walmart for 97-98 and a good one at that. Your family are in my thoughts and prayer.
