I stumbled across this website while researching the rights of patients in a teaching hospital for an ethical debate i will be attending tomorrow for my graduate course at UAB in the Family Nurse Practitioner program. I became curious as to who had written this and began to venture around the website. I found myself reading the autopsy report and my heart sank as i read the conclusive findings. God bless this man and his family. What a tragic, tragic, end to the life of what appears through his writings, to be a remarkable man.

Thanks Kirtan. I am thankful you shared this about Daniel. It is true that Daniel just gave. He had such empathy.

Thank you for sharing the story about Daniel and his ashes. I continue to miss him daily. He was so talented and caring. I will always miss him.

The life that Daniel had outside of the Austin area is one I know little about. But, I know some of the places in Austin and around the area that might be worth consideration: Barton Springs, Guadalupe River, the elephant room (perhaps just to visit, not to rest)… Will return with more ideas after awhile. Anyone else who knows of places he loved, please post here. I miss you dearly, my brother. I found a tune that I know you’d love to play called “the old country”. It reminds me of beautiful love. How fitting, considering your journeys before Austin.

Hello,
I’m one of Daniel’s friends from Austin. We played music together (jazz specifically) and shared great and genuine times. I was very touched at reading this. I never delved into Daniel’s personal life concerning his past as it seems we were always in the present together playing music, having drinks, going swimming, or talking about love and our lives in Austin. Perhaps that was my role with Daniel: to keep him happy and in the present. It wasn’t until after his passing and my need for understanding that i got obsessively curious about his history. And, I discovered what you had already uncovered. I wish that I had seen what you had so that I might have lent him more concern. I loved Daniel dearly and had hoped to see him in Austin in May, but our schedules didn’t coincide. I thank you for the final words in your writing as i question my faith often and even disregard it entirely. The picture that you painted gives some consolation but doesn’t diminish the loss i feel. I do hope to see Daniel again and to give him a big hug. i long to see him in my dreams, to tell him how much I love him. Those who knew him, were all given the gift… though I feel i might have taken it for granted. Bless you and the time you took to share your friendship and memories of him.

I shepherded Daniel’s brother Manoli through his final days and weeks of life in a North Atlanta exurb. Daniel was a nephew I never knew and I cannot but help think of something their great grandfather published entitled “The lost boys of the Alleghanies.” It was an equally tragic tale.

The organization where Daniel’s parents met have sown light and darkness for many years. Fortunately we still have Kleenix.

Thank you so much for posting this. I needed this today. It’s about one month later, and I still feel all the emotions and sentiments of that day. It’s all still so fresh. I know everyone must still be dealing with their emotions, as am I. Daniel is loved and missed by many. He has made his mark on all of our hearts. Thank you for providing this site as a living memorial to our friend.

I can hear his passion and beauty in his shy voice when he says, “What did you think, Juancho?” I can almost hear him breathe in front of me in this video. It reminds me of having him in my room. I’m also sad because when he speaks, I can hear in his voice the sadness he’d bottled up and had hidden. I wish he could have shared it with us.

Thank you very much for this footage.

Oh my god!! I’m crying. I watch this through tears of joy and sadness. I remember fond memories of our playing together and lament the music we will never make again. I love Daniel. You are always a friend to me no matter where you may be. The waterworks begin anew when you you hear him ask “What did you think Juancho?” So much enthusiasm and pride in his voice. Miss you every day man. Thanks for sharing that video clip Juancho and Peter.
