Ranae. I love you. I have no words. I'm heartbroken for you. I've never seen siblings as close as you two and it's not fair. Eric- I love you too. You guys had the best friendship and marriage. My little cousin was one of the kindest people and damn funny. I'm truly sorry I will not be there this weekend. That is out of my control. Love to all of you.

To hear a kind voice on the radio, a cell phone call from EOC, or a jump to channel 8 request, I knew Danni was working and we all were in good hand throughout our shift. Danni and Eric were the two best people to see/hear when you were having a bad day or in a funk. They always knew how to brighten your day and give you that lift you needed. Eric always told my wife Danni was my work wife. I know Danni will always be with Eric in spirit, but it breaks my heart she left him physically. She was an awesome dispatcher, but even a better wife. God Bless Eric, both families, and Allegheny EOC. We lost a great one. Gods Speed Danni !
