Daniel was a devoted husband and father, a man of faith, loved the Lord, and lived a life serving others. He will be remembered for his generosity and always going above and beyond for the people he cared about, especially his two daughters, who were his world. His love and guidance will continue to shape their lives forever. He was a deeply supportive and loving husband to Jen. They were best friends and partners in life. As a son, Daniel displayed unwavering devotion and care towards his parents as well as unconditional love for his baby brother, Jon. He constantly supported them in their times of need, and his selflessness and love were a source of strength for the family. He loved spending time with his family and friends. He was always there for them, no matter what. Daniel was also a devoted employee of over 15 years, close friend, and respected co-worker of his colleagues at Closets Plus. He was a passionate Alabama football fan, an avid home remodeler, and enjoyed cooking for his family and experimenting with new recipes. Everyone always had a special request at holiday meals for their favorite dish from Daniel. He had a great sense of humor, and loved to joke and laugh. Daniel never met a stranger, always had time for everyone, a smile for everyone, and could literally talk to anyone about anything.

The family expresses deep gratitude for the outpouring of love and support during this very difficult time. Your thoughts, prayers, and presence are greatly appreciated.

Pallbearers will be John Fuller, Greg Kirk, David Fuller, Kaleb Kirk, Norris Capley, Ben Capley, Cortlyn Prince, and Dallas Deason.
