Daniel and I grew up together at Morley Elemtary School and I was so hurt when I found out that he was killed. It's kinda just like September 11th...You remember the exact place you were when you found out our country was being attacked. Same thing. I remember my surroundings and what I was doing when I got a call saying he was dead. I thought the person was lying to me and then I called like 5 other people and they all knew about it which gave me confirmation for the worst.I think about Daniel and Kashaundra (another elementary schoolmate who was murdered) all the time. I wonder what if this and what if that. I really miss Daniel. He was such a kind person. I didn't know one person who didn't get along with him... he didn't take crap of anyone but he would give you his last if he knew you and cared about you. I remember at his funeral his mother got up and was saying how Daniel wouldn't go onto the football field until he found her in the crowd of Saginaw High fans and she would wave her hand just to let him know she was there or everything was okay. So at the funeral the waved her hand to let him know everything was okay. Daniel made me realize that life is not promised and you never know what is going to happen from day to day. His life wasn't in vain I got a more serious outlook on life and began to come out of the cocoon if ignorance and immaturity that I had been trapped in for so long. I really wish Daniel was here. He would have been a graduate from college right now probably in education and possibly playing professional ball because he had potential in that as well. I will never ever forget him.
I remember when we were in the 10 grade and i was running late for school and for some odd reason i forgot to put on my bra then Daniel started hitting for some unknow reason come to find out he knew i didnt have my bra on
DANIEL AND I WENT BACK AS FAR AS WEBBER MIDDLE SCHOOL TOGETHER. HE WAS ONE OF THE SHINING STARS OF OUR CLASS. HIS DEATH WAS ESPECIALLY HARD FOR ME BECAUSE I WAS ONCE AGAIN @ WORK BEING CALLED TO GO AND PICK UP A BODY. AS I WAS LOADING THE BODY I WAS CALLED TO PICK UP ONTO MY STRETCHER I TURNED AND LOOKED TO MY RIGHT TO SEE DANIEL'S LIFELESS BODY ON THE TABLE. THAT THERE WAS ONE OF THE WORSTDAYS I EXPERIECED WORKING IN THAT FIELD. NO ONE DESERVES TO DIE A DEATH LIKE THAT!
