I first met Danny as an incoming freshman at Castle H. S. in 1970. He was a year older and already known as an athlete and a good person. I’d never heard him speak ill of anyone or anything and have always valued his opinions and conversations we held. He had heart, integrity and good character thruout our years in high school. I later was asked to write a recommendation for him to be a police officer with HPD as I had joined several years prior to his applying. I wrote of his honor, integrity and character as being just what would serve the greater good of HPD and the community we served. A truly good man and a positive reflection of what others should strive to be. Ahui hou Dannygriggs. Until we meet again.

Hard to believe that you've been gone for 9 years. Always pray for you when I go to sleep and think of you the first thing in the morning. So many wonderful memories and the fun times we had. I know you are always just a dream away. I love you my brother and I miss you so much.
Thank you Mr Gordon, and Chris hope all is well. He so enjoyed your company.

Hey My Brother, I can't believe it has been nine years since I have been able to talk and laugh with you. You know I miss you everyday. And I know you hear me everyday when I tell you good morning, and I miss you, and just talk story to you. It was and is hard to not have you in my life, though you will always be in my heart. I know you are just cruisin' in heaven with my mom, and I know she hears me and looks out for me everyday too. I miss the both of you so much, and it still brings tears to my eyes that the both of you were taken from me. You were the best friend and beat partner that anyone could ask for. I so enjoyed talking to you everyday and seeing you just about everyday. I have so much respect for you, you are truly a hero in my heart and eyes. I miss you. I miss working with you and hanging out with you. You always brightened my day. Rest in peace my brother. Love you, forever!
