I will always remember Danya as being a good friend to everyone and always having a smile for me – she will be greatly missed.
One of my first friends I made in kindergarten. The teacher made the mistake of putting us, two talkers, together at nap time. I will remember that and Danya fondly. Peace and love be with the family.
