My father, Clement Lelasher, was Danny\’s cousin. Danny\’s mother, Mary Daske, was my great aunt. Her sister, Agnes Daske, was my grandmother. My father passed away on 12/22/99. Dan and my father, Clem, were very close. I will always remember Danny tipping his head forward to pass thru doorways. He was a tall man. I am unable to attend Danny\’s funeral. I\’m glad I can sign the guestbook. God Bless.
