Messages Of Condolence

I first met Danny when he took over from Richard Hayes, big shoes to fill, but he filled them perfectly. He was always on hand to help with any 'emergency' and his expert advice was called upon on many occasions. Having started as customer/supplier we quickly became friends, indeed we were in contact with each other early in March when Danny celebrated his birthday.
Many memories, rugby internationals at Twickenham, where he was the perfect host, one cricket visit to The Oval where it rained all day and we had to source other forms of entertainment! Indoor golf was suggested, followed by a few beers, and a walk around the capital to find somewhere to eat, losing a few of our group on the way!
Although I retired in 2021, Danny kept in touch, testament to the fact that we had a lasting friendship, I send Carlie and all of her family, and Danny's JOST family too my deepest condolences.

I had the honour of first meeting Danny a few years ago & since then became great friends. He was a massive influence not only my life but to those that knew him. We was always joking & laughing we would always argue about rugby & who's the best. Sleep peacefully my friend.

Deepest condolences

God bless to you all at this difficult time. Sending our love.

I had the pleasure of meeting Danny during his 'induction and introduction' tour with Richard Hayes when he first joined Edbro. From that moment forth, we became friends and he never popped in without the essential packet of chocolate Hob Nobs. After all these years, he still comes to mind whenever I see chocolate Hob Nobs, and this will continue forever. I also had the pleasure of bumping into him at last years Motor Transport Awards, a big bear hug and a few reminicent stories. He will be sorely missed by our Commercial Vehicle sector let alone his family and friends. My condolences to all his immediate family and close friends.
