To my Dad,
It was you and Mom that gave me my incredible life.  You have told me in the past that you two were the lucky one's when I came into your life, but it was I that was the lucky one.  You have always shown me how to be a true man with your actions, words and leading by example.  You have shown me how to be compassionate yet competitive in life and that Family is always top priority, next to God.  I hope one day that I will be as good as a man, husband, Dad, and Papa as you are and were to all of us.  You have called me your hero for serving in the the military, but in fact, you are and always have been my hero for being my Dad.  I Love You very much Dad, and I miss you every day.  This is not a goodbye, but a, I will see you again soon.
Michael Dean Daniel

Pops, I miss you so much.  Such a great man, your everlasting touch on all our lives will never be forgotten.  I have been so lucky to have so much family around me all my life, but sometimes it doesn't seem like enough.  Your strength in all ways was so obvious that I never even imagined life without you.  I know you are always with us, the foundation you laid for this family is so apparent in all of us that we can all look to each other to see a piece of you and by doing so we will keep going strong the way you showed us.  Of course some things will never be the same, blowing out birthday candles will always be bitter sweet for the amazing memories it will bring back.  But how lucky was I to share so many great birthdays with you.  I love you so much and promise to uphold the standards and value that you instilled in me.  You are a perfect example of what every man says he wants to be and I will always strive be more like you with everyday.           Love you always
                                                                              -Randall

There are no words that can describe the loss that I feel. I can't begin to comprehend how my life is going to be here on this earth without you. I was one of the lucky ones who had the most loving and giving Daddy. I always knew I could come to you with anything and you would always have my back. I was so fortunate to have lived my entire life right next to you. We never went more then a couple of days without seeing each other. Even at the end I never left your side. I will forever remember the days walking into your room to see you and your first words would be "There's my girl". It is a memory I will forever have. You were there to see my first breath and I was there to see your last. Now I have to learn to live without you. It will be one of the hardest things in my life that I have to do. There are so many things I am going to miss. To many to list. We had a bond that only fathers and daughters can understand. There is no stronger bond then a daddy and his little girl. No matter my age I will forever know I am your little girl. To try and move on without you will be difficult. I don't know where to begin on how to heal this loss. But what helps, is to know that you are no longer in any pain and you are in heaven waiting for me. But until that reunion happens I know I have my own personal guardian angel watching over his little girl. I will forever miss you Daddy.
Love your little girl,
Darlene

No words can say how much Papa meant to me and our family. He was and always will be a great influence on my life. I will miss him always. He is one of the greatest men I have ever known. 
Love you Pops. 
Your grandson

So sorry for your loss!! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family!!! Love always Rachel Huckaby and family!!!

I am so blessed to be a part of the Daniels family. Ron was like a 2nd dad to me. He called me his "Wild Child"... Has anyone met Dar? With that said, don't judge me. (Love you sis)  This is all still so unreal to me. He could walk in a room and just change the mood of everyone. He was the light that always shined. I truly am going to miss him. Until I see you again, I will hold you in my heart forever. Mama Pat, I love you! You continue to be in our prayers.

I have known Ron for 52/53 years, a man that had great pride in his family. He was  wonderful Christian and a gentelman.  loved sports and played very well.  I will miss him very much.  If my sister and I had been blessed with a brother we would have wanted him to be just like Ron.  See you in Heaven my Brother.  Love you.  Sandee Janeway and Lana Evans

I'm going to miss papa, from our conversations about boys to seeing that sparkle in his eye doing the things he loved like playing my chauffeur for prom. He taught me so much in such a little amount of time. It takes a great man to accomplish as much as he had in his 70 years. If tears can build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to Heaven and bring papa home again. But being a guardian angel will be the next best thing. That way he can continue looking out for those he loves. I'll miss you papa.

Love,
Your Pumpkin

Pat, Darlene, Joe and Daniel family;
Our hearts are saddened by the loss of Ron and our thoughts and prayers are with you. May your memories of happier times together give you peace and comfort. He is no longer suffering and is a brillant angel that you love in heaven.

I am so sorry for your loss.  I really enjoyed working with Ron & I will miss him.  He was a good man.

To my dear family, 
  I had the pleasure to know uncle Ron my entire life.  He was one of the most influential men in my life and a constant role model of how to be a real man.  His hard working nature and gentle loving attitude were examples to me for as long as I can remember.  I carry a little part of him with me always.
  I love you all!

Dear Darlene, Joe and family, we are so deeply and very sorry for your loss. I didn't get the opportunity to meet your father but I know he must have been a great man; not only by the incredible daughter he raised but also by the way that you, Darlene, always talked about him and cared for him. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you, Joe, your mother and the entire family. Love, Katie and David Haynes.

Pat, Darlene and the entire Daniel family, we are so very sorry for your loss. We never met Ron but witnessing tonight's service, we felt the love that he had for you all, and the impact he made on everyone. We admire his faith and character and what his life stood for. We know how much you will miss him, but please find comfort in knowing he is at peace. It was a beautiful service and tribute to his life. We love you Darlene!

Aunt Pat, I am so sorry for your loss!  You and Uncle Ron were like extended parents to me.  I always loved getting that warm welcoming hug from both of you whenever we were together! I know your faith will carry you through and that Uncle Ron will be playing racquet ball with his savior! I pray that you are well and with God's love, find comfort in the coming days.  Love Always, Christa Daniel

May the Peace of God surround you all during this difficult time. Ron was so kind, and sweet.  He always made you at home in his home. 
We are with you from a distance with prayer and love . 
Amy

We are so sorry we can't be there, but we love you Pat and we are praying for you, Dar, Joe, Mike and the entire family.  We know God's grace is sufficient and His comfort will be felt.  We loved Ron very much and enjoyed the times we have shared with the both of you.  Prayerfully, Earl and Judy Stinson

So very sorry for your loss. Ron was such a wonderful man, and he left behind a beautiful family full of awesome memories.Think on those great times. May God bless you and heal your pain.

Ron and Pat were my neighbors and anyone that knew them understands when I say they quickly became my extended family.  There was so much love between them and their family and they made everyone they met feel special.  I considered Ron my second father and he seemed to always appear at the time when I was struggling with something and would jump in to help without hesitation.  And when it came to their family they were always involved whether it was going somewhere locally or if it involved longer travel.  Family was always first.  Our world down here is a bit dimmer but Heaven got a lot brighter.  You will all be in my thoughts and prayers during your time of healing.

Pat and family, I am so very sorry for your loss of your dear husband Ron.. My heart goes out to you especially for you lost your other half and I understand that loss. For the children, grandchildren and all others for His Dad, I pray that God pour HIS unending comfort and strength into your spirits, mind, soul and lives and that the strength that only GOD the Father gives us  sustains, supplies what we have need of to walk through these times. I lost one of the dearest friends in my life and he will always be a precious memory to me. God bless you all . I am praying for you and your family.  With much love.   God hold you close.  Myra L. Curtis

An amazing man Ron Daniel was.  He was a gentle giant.  Loved Jesus with all of his heart.  He will be missed by all.
