Daniel McFarland Obituary

Was sitting here tonight thinking about how I was waiting for you to pick me up from work but I blame myself because I was sent home early that day and you were on your way to pick me up at my house! We were together for 3 months but it felt like a lifetime. Just know that I think about you always and miss your kisses and cuddles

DAN,

EVEN THOUGH THE SAME DAY THAT I MET YOU FOR THE FIRST TIME, I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT MY PRAYERS ARE STILL AROUND YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS WHO HAS LOST SINCE A REALLY NEAT AND COOL PERSON. I THOUGHT YOU WERE PRETTY COOL WHEN I FIRST MET YOU, I JUST WISHED THAT YOUR HORRIFIC ACCIDENT DID NOT OCCUR. MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY

Gone but definitely NOT FORGOTTEN!!!!

one love.

I am still very much in shock I guess. It's so hard to believe, and so painful to admit the truth. I keep expecting to see you, to hear your voice. You always knew what to say, you had a way of making me laugh when I really didn't want to. I will never forget the way you looked out for those you cared about. You had a natural instinct to protect those around you. You always stuck up for me, and I thank you for that. There are so many things I should have told you...but I can't dwell on that. I miss you so much Too Short! We didn't talk much in the past year, but still when I saw you a couple weeks ago you were so happy to see me, and greeted me with a smile and a hug. I never thought that would be one of the last hugs I gave you. My condolences to the family of Dan. He was one of the best guys I know. He genuinely cared about people. Until I see you again Dan, I LOVE YOU, I MISS YOU, and I will always remember the good old days!! :O)

How many years it has been, I can't even count. When we met all them years ago, I knew we would be friends till the end, except the end came sooner then I ever imagined. When you me and Ramon all moved in next to each other within the same month, we were destined to all be together. Until this horrible tragedy ripped us apart and left a void in my heart where you once stood. I can't even tell you how much you have influnced me. From Pink Floyd, Aerosmith, and Metallica to our deep conversations you used to have about how much you loved Kristin and how you knew that one day you guys would be married, but don't worry Danny I never gave up any of your secrets. I just miss you sharing them with me or how I always new I could share similiar feelings with you and you would understand and empathise. You were always like my big brother and I couldn't thank you enough. My tears steady stream for the hurt inside I feel, but I know you are watching over me and all your friends so it helps me calm down (plus I know you would make fun of me!). I will never forget you. And until the day we meet again, I love you, and keep you next to my heart.

I know I've already signed this, but I thought that I would put the poem that I wrote in here just in case anyone wanted to read it.



Little Dan

I know that if I saw you

last week or the one before,

I would have said hello,

but nothing too much more.

You were one of my favorites

out of all my sister's friends,

and I thought that would be forever,

because you shouldn't have reached your end.

I remember your sweet smile,

and the way you made us laugh,

but I never thought I'd miss it,

cause I thought it would always last.

This isn't supposed to happen

to someone younger than I,

and when I think about it,

it makes me wonder "why?"

You had so much more to live for,

so why were you taken away?

I guess someone up above knew

that you were too good to stay.

And even though we know that's true,

it doesn't ease our pain, because

knowing the world is without you;

things won't be the same.

Well I guess I'll say goodbye now,

it's time that we must part,

but I just want you to know

you'll always be in our hearts.

In our lives, we unfortunatly lose close friends and family. We can not dwell on it, we can only think of the wonderful memories and look forward to the future...where we will eventually all be back together again. Do not think of this as goodbye....think of it as, "See ya later." To all of Too Short's family and friends, my deepest sympathy. I love you Too Short. <3 <3 <3

To all of Dan's family and freinds although we haven't talked to or seen eachother in a long time you were always in my heart and will always be I will never forget you Love you Too Short. my deepest sympothy to all of Dan's family and friends

I WOULD LIKE TO GIVE MY CONDOLENCES TO DANNYS FAMILY. THE NIGHT THAT HE HAD PASSED AWAY I MET HIM FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME WITH HIS FRIEND DOUG. HE WAS A VERY NICE PERSON. I KNOW THE FEELING OF LOSING SOMEONE THAT YOU LOVE BECAUSE THAT FOLLOWING DAY AROUND THE SAME TIME I HAD LOST MY BEST FRIEND TO A CAR ACCIDENT WHICH LED TO HER DEATH. AND I HAD MENTIONED TO HER ABOUT WHAT I HAD LEARNED ABOUT DANNY AND DOUG THAT SAME DAY I TRIED TO WARN DANNY AND DOUG TO BE CAREFUL THAT NIGHT. I JUST WANT TO SAY I AM VERY SORRY. MAY GOD BLESS HIM AND MAY HE REST IN PEACE.

I've only known Dan for about a month or two now, but he has been a great and loving friend. He was the easiest person to talk to because he was so caring. May you rest in peace Dan. You will be missed by all. My deepest sympathy for Dan's family & friends. We love you too short!

I have known Dan since 6th grade. Living just one house away from him for almost 6 years, made me close to him. I even remember the first day he moved in. Even though we haven't talked that much in the past year, I still believe that he will always be one of my best friends from Orland Hills. I remember everytime I saw Dan, he was always smiling, laughing, or joking about something. No one will ever forget that smile. My deepest sympathy to all of Dan's family and friends. I will never forget him!! May he Rest In Peace!

I wasn't really a friend of Dan. He was like my best friends big brother. He was always there when we wanted to talk to someone older and he was always one to laugh with. Kelly and i would be walking down the street and Dan would be there with his head halfway out the window smiling, waving, and saying hi, he always loved the way we were so excited to see his happy face! WE will never forget his golden smile, or him as a whole! He was a role model. He'll never be forgotten and will always be missed!

Lil Danny Boy, I've always called you that, even though you were only a month older I was bigger then you. I've known you since 6th grade. I know the past year we haven't talked much, because I moved away and school and work. But you have always been one of my best friends. You have I kindest heart and sprit. No matter what, you alway made me laugh. You will be greatly missed. My respects to his family, and the rest of the many friends you have. You will be greatly missed, and so many will always love you!

To all of Dan's family & friends,

I am deeply sorry that everyone had to lose such a sweet person. Though I wasn't a close friend to Dan, I knew him, and I knew that he was very loving and special. He was one of the nicest teenagers I ever met, and that's saying a lot, since we all know how teenagers can be! Well, Dan, we know you went to a better place. I guess you were just too good to stay here. We'll miss you always.

Although we haven't talked as much as we used to you have always been a close friend. Rest In Peace!!! You will be missed by many!! My Condolences to the family.

May the LORD bless ALL you left behind.
