I knew Danny from kindergarten through high school graduation. He was indeed smart, and also funny and sweet. I'm so sorry to see this. My condolences to his family and friends.

My condolences to the Carroll family. This is a difficult time for you. Death is an enemy to us all. GOD's word can comfort and give you hope. GOD promises a resurrection of the dead.(Acts 24:15) We will see our loved ones live again, on a paradise earth, where death and pain will be no more.(Rev.21:3-5; Psalms 37:11,29) For more comfort from the scriptures, go to jw.org.

My thoughts and prayers are with Dan's family. We both graduated class of Lincoln 1968. Dan was a nice guy and very good looking- cute! He was known as Skinny Dan, because of other Dan Carroll. I'm so sorry.
