Daniel was fun loving and generous. Daniel was a plumber by trade but had the keen ability to “MacGyver” anything and often did. He enjoyed the simple pleasures, especially storms, grass cutting, fishing, soft crabbing, hunting, gunmanship, gold carting the farm and quality time with friends and family.

A Celebration of life will be held 11/5/22 and a private graveside service following. 

Preddy Funeral Home of Gordonsville is assisting the family.
