Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 126 | I never met Danny Boy personally but I thought of him as friend. Danny Boy personifies the concept of "true human being", Indeed, he was one. Through OCF he became to symbolize hope, strength, courage and goodness. I developed great respect and admiration for Danny because he inspired in me all the qualities he so freely shared with us in our struggles against the evilness of cancer. I will miss him, but his legacy will continue at OCF because he left an indelible mark on all of us. My deepest condolances to his family.
