My sympathy to you in this time of sorrow…May the lord help you through this sad time.
Send my condolences to the family.
Danny was a peer and friend.
My deepest sympathy towards the Edwards family. I was Dannys staff for 2years at TTSR. He touched my life in so many ways. Every Friday when i came to work he would slap my belly and laugh and smile with a smile that could light up a room. Danny will be truely missed.
Dr. Edwards and family,
I knew Dan through his early teen years as I was his teacher with IU6 for several years.
My deepest sympathy to you and yours at this time of loss. As I recall my classes at Franklin High School, I will always remember Danny.
Sincerely,
Danny was delight in my son’s life (Caleb Wassum), he took care of Danny everyday for three years at Training Towards Self-Reliance. I met Danny several times when Caleb was working with him. He was a JOY, you have to be proud of a son like that. He will be forever in our memories.
The Edwards family has my deepest sympathy. Everyone will truely miss Danny. I worked with Danny since the first day he came to TTSR. He was a blast to work with. I loved that big grin on his face. Though sometimes you had to work it out of him. I will never forget every time you walked in the door to start your shift he would come over and give you a big kiss on your cheek. He was a part of the family. I will never forget Danny for the rest of my life.
