Not rambling at all Daniel.....when I read your post yesterday I too felt a
voice saying, "that's my boy Daniel" so it must of been correct. I too
have
a feeling that he used to call you playfully perhaps when you were very
young "Danny Boy"....I don't know if that's true but that's what I'm
feelin
right now. He was and still very proud of you, never forget that.
(((HUGS)))
