Courtney Lynne Reynolds came into his life more recently,which helped to fill his life and increase his happiness even further. Daniel was excited to be baptized recently, and he loved life to the fullest. Daniel had many interests, but above all else, he gave his whole heart and soul to his loved ones. He would do anything for them, because he was a devoted family man. He was a terrific brother, a fantastic father, and a fun, playful, loving, devoted “Papa”. Daniel was a true artist, having left his beauty on the human canvas of hundreds and hundreds of people. His favorite thing to do was to spend time with his grandkids, but he also loved to sky dive, ride his Indian motorcycle, barbecue, go camping, and play chess. “Bumpus Family Poker Night” was special to him, and playing pool was something he always looked forward to. He was an excellent addition to his church choir, and singing with them brought him great joy.
