  • This is the man I always thought of as my Dad! You weren’t perfect but you were always there and I hold you forever in my heart! You’re with mom now and I know you are somewhere in Heaven sitting in the car talking and looking at the water! I knew, if you two weren’t in the house I could find you downtown parked and talking down by the water! I went with you everywhere and you even let me go when it was just the boys! You taught me how to drive when I couldn’t even see over the dash! You would just laugh and sit in the back and say ok Sybil, its all yours and I would drive fast and throw up dust! You taught me to shoot and fish and cuss! But Rose says, I knew how to do that already! I always went with you and mom and the kids to get the Christmas tree at Coleman’s! Mom had to have the one all the way out in the field never close! But we would walk for miles so she could have her tree! I have so many memories of you and mom together! Mom once told me you were her soul mate and I do think you were and she was yours! Yeah, we had arguments but who don’t! You were right I am nuts and I will always be your crazy daughter Sybil and you will always be my Daddy Dearest! Tell mom I miss her and. One day I know I will see you both again sitting by the wate,r talking in the car! Send me some horse bets Daddy Dearest! Love you, Wanda AKA Sybil

  • Danny,
    David and I will miss our morning discussions at the Post Office. We hope you and Woody continue the tradition in heaven. We’ll catch up with the two later. Tony

  • Danny-you were a great brother and always looked out for Deb, Terry and me. Although I
    am filled with sadness, when I remember the good old days as kids growing up, I can’t help but smile remembering your wonderful sense of humor and how you made me laugh even when I was not happy with you. I am sorry that life dealt you such a tough illness but like everything else in your life, you faced it unafraid. Your bravery was an inspiration to us all. Rosie-what can I say except we are forever grateful for the care you gave Danny. We believe your Dad would never have had the quality of life he had without you putting your life on hold to care for him. When you look at the stars tonight you will see one that sparkles a little brighter and that is your Dad saying “job well done”. I pray that Danny’s children and grandchildren know how much they were loved! Angie

  • Fond Memories I will remember all days we spent together on the water Crabbing and Fishing. And of course the Drinks we had afterwards. I think of you every time I go to the end of Delaware City turn around.
    RIP POPS. Kingy

  • I miss you so much Poppop you where the best poppop any grand daughter could ask for even if you did give me a hard about stuff i love you and miss you.

  • Blessings to Daniel’s entire family. He was surely a great man because he raised a wonderful daughter, Wanda Fisher, who spoke highly of him. Heaven has gained a very special angel.
